I am a singer, performer, and vocal coach specializing in Arabic and Tunisian vocal art, as well as the interpretation of traditional and contemporary repertoires. Trained at the Higher Institutes of Music in Sfax and Tunis, I combine technical precision with artistic sensitivity, drawing from both classical Arabic traditions and modern influences. In my teaching, I focus on vocal technique, maqamat, and stylistic expression, helping each student develop authenticity, confidence, and a unique artistic voice.
