About

I play wheelchair para-badminton for the UAE and I’ve competed in more than 20 countries. My home and training base is the Dubai Club for People of Determination.

I’m also a TEDx speaker and an advocate for inclusion in sport across the UAE. My goal is to qualify for the 2028 Paralympic Games in Los Angeles and to represent the country at the highest level.
