Biography

At the age of nine I grew up imitating my favourite artists until forming my own unique character and style.
As a teenager, my curiosity and love for music drove me to study music professionally.
At fifteen, I started studying classical and lyrical singing in the Lebanese National Higher Conservatory of Music.
At seventeen, and with a stronger understanding of the direction sought for my career, I pursued my studies with one of the best modern singing coaches in the country, Wadih Abi Raad.
At seventeen, I gained a reputation within Beirut, Lebanon, as a talented, ambitious and professional musician, quickly becoming a regular performer throughout Lebanon’s largest events, clubs and venues and appearing on popular TV channels including MTV and LBC Lebanon. Memorable highlights include a guest appearance on Heik MenGhanne, MTV, 2019, and my appearance as the lead singer and actress at the "LOVE & LIGHT" Christmas concert by Maestro Harout Fazlian, also on MTV, 2020, alongside many other interviews in the journals.
In May 2021, I released my first single, composing the music in collaboration USEK, and producing a song and music video called “Wait for the sun”. After the explosion in Beirut in August 2020, ‘Wait for the Sun ’was released for the Lebanese people as a message of hope and unity.
At twenty-two, my growth and knowledge of music have developed in a manner that goes beyond singing, I’ve become a multi-instrumentalist, and I am able to accompany myself on the piano and guitar. I continue to pursue classical piano and music studies at the Music Academy at Holy Spirit University of Kaslik, alongside my bachelor degree in Actuarial and Financial Mathematics.
I got the opportunity to expand my career, and go beyond Lebanon. By the end of May, I was performing in Larnaca, Cyprus.
As of September 2021, I am proud to say that I became a resident in the UAE, performing as the lead singer of a 19-piece band, formed by musicians from all over the world at EXPO2020 Dubai, on one of the biggest stages in the world. Moreover, I was contracted to be the lead female vocalist and to record and perform a song called “Al Sharika" in a show that celebrates Sharjah’s 50th Anniversary at Al Majaz Amphitheatre, attended by His Excellency, Sheikh Sultan Bin Ahmed Al Qasimi.
Today, my musical talents allow me to perform and accompany myself on piano and guitar, a vast repertoire covering many different genres of music, from the 70s through to modern day pop, jazz, rock, and blues, singing in English and incorporating my Arabic and French heritage.
I have been practicing music daily, and specially composing my own music. And today, my goal is to keep on working hard, and keep on pursuing my dreams.
