As an architecture student, I participated in a Summer School in Sicily-Italy under the title of: Architettura, Paesaggio, Archeologia (Architecture, Landscape, and Archaeology) at Università degli Studi di Palermo, where I was exposed to team work with local Italian groups. We worked on the task of creating a movie about architecture, landscape and archaeology of the Mediterranean area, where I acquired deeper knowledge about architecture in the Mediterranean area in general, and Sicily in particular. Moreover, I attended the 5th Architectural Jordanian International Conference in Amman-Jordan, during which I have learned and discovered a lot about contemporary architecture in the Arab world, with its opportunities and challenges. As for my practical internship in architecture, I completed two summer internships in summer 2017, both with the period of 6 weeks. My first internship was at P&T Architects and Engineers Ltd in Dubai-UAE. My second internship was at FINTA studio in Budapest-Hungary. As for my non-academic participations, I worked as an assistant in the UNDP conference that was held in Amman-Jordan, along with voluntary work at Basmtna (Amman) and YMCA (Gaza), in which all of these participations have helped me in gaining organizational and communication skills, along with the ability to work well under pressure.
