I am an electrical and computer engineering student at AUB working towards my PhD degree with a focus on automation, control, and energy. I am also the founder and CEO of Innovating Green Technology (I.G.T), a startup developing innovative green energy systems improving the efficiency and reliability of various sectors. I am passionate about revolutionizing green technologies and promoting renewable energy schemes to sustain our region. As one of the 20 Innovators Under 35 in the MIT Technology Review (for the MENA region 2019), and top 4 candidates for the Harvard Startup Competition 2019, I am working to accelerate impact in Lebanon to overcome the economic, environmental and social challenges we are facing.

Innovating Green Technology (I.G.T) is presenting an innovative modular system with a photovoltaic powered UV disinfection scheme aiming to develop an integrated alternative water management plan for the MENA region. This system can be implemented in households, factories and local communities to solve wastewater issues - using solar power to transform and disinfect wastewater into water safe for irrigation. This system can treat up to 400 litres per day to serve traditional farming communities, as well as aquaponics/hydroponics oriented projects. The project will assess the technical, social, environmental, and economic feasibility of deploying specific technologies in a pilot showcase for both the private and public sectors of local communities for application internationally. The plan will also include the study of long-term effects of water and food security on human health and will serve as a model for sustainable water management and reuse in the region. The technologies to be deployed are: 1) Demo rooftop rainwater harvesting unit for domestic water supply; 2) Decentralized wastewater treatment units to treat domestic wastewater for supply of irrigation water; and an integrated composting unit for enhancement of agricultural production; 3) Irrigation network and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system for water monitoring and efficiency.
