About Me

I love engaging with great fun people, I love bringing out my ideas in music and art, I have to move forward, I always seem to be travelling, searching inspiration and experiencing the world!
I'm excited to see whats around the corner and happy & grateful for the journey so far...
I am Egyptian in roots, but brought up in Australia in a loving artistic energetic family. I spent most of my childhood in markets and festivals and with my 5 siblings. I went to a performing ars music high school and have loved singing and playing piano on stage since I was young. I'm inspired by people, life and always loving to see more....
The last 5 years I've lived, travelled and / or worked in Japan, Egypt, Denmark, Holland, Sweden, US, Germany, Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania, Australia and Colombia.
My passion is music and art. I hope to meet you in my travels, lets share love and live life as best we can!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Many amazing moments i'm grateful for...
Yoko Ono approved my version of John Lennon's song "Real Love" for the Australian premiere of The Biggest Loser 2012.
Great spontaneous things happen to me - I learnt the song in a couple hours, recorded and sent it off the next the next day.
Sometimes my dreams come true...
