About me: I’m an engineer turned product owner, curious about how things work and how to make them better. I’m Egyptian, raised in Kuwait, and I’ve called London home for almost a decade.
I hold a bachelors in civil engineering with management and a masters in engineering with innovation and entrepreneurship, both from UCL in the UK. Before London Business School, I spent five years at London Stock Exchange Group, moving from cybersecurity into product. I’m now R&D Product Owner in the digital markets infrastructure team, working on digital assets – a role I’ve kept part time during the MBA.
Engineering taught me to evaluate whether a solution works. I chose the One-year MBA to learn whether it should be built. A cohort of forty from across the world is small enough to know everyone and varied enough that someone in the room has usually lived the case.
At London Business School, I’m Junior VP for AI and Emerging Technology in the Tech Club and on the Entrepreneurship Club’s Executive Committee for treks.
Student ambassadors gave me a lot of amazing help when I was applying, so please feel free to reach out. And don’t count yourself out before anyone else has!
Three topics I can be approached about: Tech; life in London; product management.
