In Damascus i learned to love family, appreciate good food, tolerate very warm weather and fear a corrupt  Government. Like many young Syrians who are lucky enough to leave, I left my family and the good food behind to escape the brutal dictatorship and go on with my future. So I moved to America. There I learned to love cars, big amounts of food, appreciate generous friendly people and positive mental attitudes and fear a consume oriented materialistic world. In America - Baltimore / Los Angeles I got my bachelor in fine art/ illustration and started getting tattooed. I lived there in various cities and worked in various design and illustration jobs until I decided to get closer to my Family in Europe. So I moved to Hamburg. In Hamburg I learned to love the city and the harbor, appreciate real honest people and dry humor, tolerate grumpy people and the bad weather and to fear settling down for log time. I worked in Hamburg with various ad agencies and won couple of creative awards. That job made me miss paper and pen, paint and wood, so I decided to drop the mouse and pick up the pencil again. Shortly after that I picked up the tattoo machine. now I have bin self employes for over 18 Years.  Working on a divers Art projects and collaborations. Tattooing, painting walls, Making Art and organising events. I love to keep moving and I enjoy learning new things. I am also a mom of a Wonderfull Daughter that inspires me every day.
