As a result, I am able to grow and improve my knowledge and expertise in Vizrt's intelligent systematic designing.

I have been employed in the broadcast industry from 2003, where I altered my focus from motion graphics to on-air graphics. since 2010, I've been working exclusively on Vizrt for the beIN Media Group (Aljazeera Media Network).
