On the record

Audit Partner | IFRS Champion | Regional Trainer & Speaker | Empowering Financial Excellence Across the Middle East & Beyond | Purpose-Driven Value Investor As Audit Partner at Nearshore Middle East—an international audit, tax, and advisory firm and proud member of the RT ASEAN global network—I lead with purpose and a passion for elevating financial standards. I head our Audit and Advisory Services, as well as the IFRS adoption team in Egypt, and serve as a member of the RT ASEAN Technical Committee. Throughout my career, I’ve worked with a broad portfolio of clients—from ambitious startups to regulated entities—across sectors including leasing, mortgage, consumer finance, aviation, tech, construction, and retail. I’m driven to help organizations navigate complexity with clarity, compliance, and confidence. Beyond advisory, I am a dedicated trainer and regional speaker, passionate about developing the next generation of finance leaders. I’ve conducted high-impact workshops and led numerous IFRS and due diligence engagements, guiding companies through successful transitions from local GAAP to international standards. I also serve on the audit committees of several companies, where I contribute to strengthening governance, enhancing oversight, and fostering accountability at the board level. Driven by purpose, guided by integrity—I’m here to build trust, transfer knowledge, and shape the future of finance in our region. Personal interest: Beyond my professional journey, I’m passionate about investing in listed companies and understanding what drives sustainable business success. I’m especially drawn to the strategic insights revealed in investor reports, earnings releases, and financial disclosures—where numbers tell the story of vision, discipline, and execution. What drives me is a genuine curiosity about how great companies grow, how markets respond to performance, and how long-term value is created. I see investing not just as a financial activity, but as an ongoing learning journey—one that sharpens analytical thinking and deepens my appreciation for business strategy. I strive to inspire young professionals to see investing as a path to learning and growth. Through mentorship and financial education, we can empower future leaders to make informed decisions and approach the market with confidence and purpose.
