Born in Lebanon in 1967. The first four years of my life were mainly in Brazil, then in Lebanon during the civil war. In 1985 I emigrated to Ireland and enrolled in Trinity College Dublin. In 1994 I graduated with three Masters in Psychology. As a counselling psychologist, I worked in the Irish Health Board; four and a half years years in the area of sexual abuse; adults who have been abused in childhood, and adolescents who have abused younger children. Then I worked with refugees, most of whom have been tortured in their country of origin. For the 2002/2003 year I moved from the Health Board and worked in nine different inner city Dublin schools.
Since then I expanded into the arts, releasing 6 CDs of my own compositions, self published two novels, made a film documentary, and a stand-up socio-political one man show in Beirut.
