So excited & honored to be recognized by @arab_america’s 40 Under 40 list!! Sharing my Lebanese culture with others, by incorporating it into my work and everyday life, is a priority and pleasure. Thank you @arab_america for this honor & the opportunity to continue connecting with Arab Americans nationwide 🙏🏼❤️🇱🇧✨ Thinking about my fellow Lebanese today, especially as we reflect on the anniversary of the 2020 port explosion. 😔💪🏼 • 📸: @danilohess 👕: @staceymcfacey
