A renewable energy research scientist who was born in the 8th of December 1986 and raised in Cairo, Egypt. He got the B.Sc. in electrical engineering in 2008 from faculty of Engineering, Helwan University, Egypt. He obtained his M.Sc. Degree in renewable energy in 2014 from University of Oldenburg, Germany. Directly after finishing his B.Sc. studies, he Joined ABB as a technical trainer and support engineer. On January 2011, he joined the American University in Cairo (AUC), School of Science and Engineering as the first official science communicator in Egypt. His message was to simplify different fields of science, in addition to creating a public engagement strategy with scientists and engineers aiming to erase scientific illiteracy from Egyptian society, through outreaching and creating educational revolutionary activities which will lead to establishing the foundations of a decision maker society. Since June 2014, he joined KIT (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) as a renewable energy scientist, working on the development of new ideas in the field of renewables especially solar, wind and energy storage solutions. He is married and currently living with his family in Germany whom he always mention as the best part of his life (thanks ALLAH).

My main passion is about creating a remarkable difference wherever I am, through defined strategies and methodologies that suites the culture and economic state of the society I am living within.
