The Game-Changer

Somewhere along the way, I dove into game design—not just to create entertainment, but to build games that celebrated culture, bonding, and shared moments. I also worked at an events and advertising agency, where I led the design of event branding, media, and promotional campaigns that brought people together in meaningful ways.

It was a fun, fulfilling time that pushed me to blend play, purpose, and storytelling.

The Business Leap ​

 

I stepped into government privatization, diving into business, economics, and B2B marketing during the early days of Vision 2030. I personally created the flagship launch video for privatization in Saudi Arabia.

From Creative Visionary to Customer Experience Nerd

With hands-on experience across marketing, creative design, media, content, and gaming, I eventually stepped into the world of Customer Experience—a space where everything I’d learned came together.

Rooted in a creative background, I had a strong foundation in user-centric design, and my knowledge in digital marketing gave me a complete view of the customer journey—from awareness to advocacy.

I went on to shape the MySTC experience and map STC customers’ journeys, turning insights into tangible improvements that enhanced both digital touchpoints and overall satisfaction.

Designing Dreams: Transforming the Tourism Experience

And then came tourism—the cherry on top of my career journey! I dove into designing unforgettable, end-to-end visitor experiences.

Having built entertainment-driven apps, I already understood how to create engaging, joyful interactions that spark curiosity, emotion, and cultural pride—a mindset I carried into every tourism experience I shaped.

Across B2C, B2B, and B2E products, I built experiences from the ground up.

This phase was fast-paced and full of shifting priorities. My ability to adapt quickly, lead cross-functional teams, and drive collaboration helped us deliver memorable experiences at every touchpoint.
