Originating from Cairo, Egypt, I earned my bachelor's degree in Dental Medicine & Surgery from Ain Shams University with a coveted spot on the honor roll in May 2009. I undertook a year-long internship at Ain Shams University's educational hospitals in October 2010 where I practiced Fixed and Removable Prosthesis, Restorative Dentistry, Oral Surgery, Endodontics, and Paediatric Dentistry.
While pursuing my university studies, I started dental assisting at various clinics. Post-graduation, I embarked on a career as a general dentist, serving across diverse clinics from 2010 to 2015. In April 2011, I became a part of the Police Academy Dental Hospital, extending oral health and dental care to police officers and their families. As an integral member of the dental team, which
included specialists, dentists, and dental nurses, I practiced different areas of dentistry, but primarily focused on Paediatric Dentistry. Alongside my professional responsibilities, I volunteered my time to tutor young future dentists subjects such as Oral Medicine, Dental Materials, and Oral Pathology.In 2013, I successfully tackled the American National Board Exam part 1, after which I crossed paths with my future husband who lived in Australia. Amid my transition to a new country and the desire to cultivate a family, I embarked on a deliberate career pivot within the dental sector. This phase of my Australian journey commenced with a tenure at dental practices in Rozelle and Alexandria, spanning from August 2015 to January 2016, which allowed me to gain local insights and experiences. In February 2016, I joined Henry Schein as a Special Markets Customer Care Officer overseeing accounts for governmental and corporate entities. In July 2018, I transitioned to the position of Special Markets Business Support Officer. An exciting turning point came in August 2021, as I moved to the Marketing department as a Brand manager. With over 15 years of dentistry experience & demonstrating exceptional outcomes, I earned a promotion in June 2023, becoming a Category Manager responsible for Pain Control and Preventive categories. Adding to my professional credentials, I recently completed the Marketing Week Mini MBA in Marketing in July 2023. Beyond my professional achievements, I am a mother to two young girls aged 6 and 3. Balancing the challenges of a full-time profession and motherhood, I derive joy from pursuits such as cooking, reading, cycling, walking, writing, swimming, and making new friends. I engage in volunteering at my local church, underscoring my dedication to giving back to the community.
