I was born and raised in Khartoum-Sudan in Africa. At the age of 18 moved to the United States to pursue a better education and life. My first major was Dentistry, but after finishing my General Education at De Anza College, I realized that my passion and ability was more than just a routine work on people’s teeth, but towards inspiring people and creating a better environment to live in and see their teeth when they are smiling and satisfying their needs. Therefore, I transferred to San Jose State University to pursue Bachelors of Fine Arts in Interior Architectural Design.
I was able to plan and problem solve many of the designs that I went through in my design career. In the different Architecture and Design firms I attended, it broadened my ability to create and use different design programs such as, Revit and AutoCad, Photoshop, Illustrator, Sketchup, Flash and Indesign to produce a great quality of work and be capable and committed to work for any successful facility within Architectural, Construction & Design firm.
