I'm interested in pretty much everything in society and I'm just passionate about being active and learning about unconventional ideas.

I'm fascinated with the number 3. I believe it's a commonly overlooked quantity that's been observed in so many principles such as in religion, aesthetics, photography, music, and even sports. We see it everywhere, whether we're ranking athletes from bronze to gold or counting right before we jump in a cold swimming pool. There's just something very interesting with its connection to human psychology.

I remember attending my first TEDx event which was TEDxLAU's "The Agora" in 2016. I was extremely drawn and inspired by the talks and the general TEDx atmosphere that I felt a need to spread this idea as much as possible, which is why I founded the first TEDxUniversityofBalamand community in Lebanon. I even had to move to the main campus which is almost an hour away from my house for the vision to surface. Regardless, it was all worth the effort.

Imitations.
