A red goatee? Yes, because I’m Mediterranean, Lebanese and from a village. Growing a goatee not only has traditional and cultural significance but lately became a trend. It simply makes you look hot!

With the barely visible thin moustache line showing in my early teens, my creative journey started. My facial hair kept growing with my interest in shapes, colors, design and various art forms until I had my first red hair!

That is when I decided what I wanted to be, not what I was supposed to be. I chose to study graphic design. With every year of exploring, learning and playing with design, I had a couple of red hairs showing up. When the enormous spread happened, I decided to be in advertising.

From Beirut to Dubai to Miami,the red is still spreading. It’s not typical. It’s special.
