About

Real Estate Strategist & Advisor | Saudi Arabia & Gulf Markets | Branded Living | Vision 2030 I arrived in Saudi Arabia in 2003 with an MBA and a belief that great real estate is about more than buildings β€” it's about how people live, invest, and grow. Over 25 years later, that belief still shapes everything I do. I'm a Riyadh-based real estate strategist and investment consultant working with developers, high-net-worth investors, and institutions across the Gulf and MENA. My focus areas: market strategy, luxury branded residences, and investment advisory for a market that's moving faster than anywhere else in the world. My career has run through Knight Frank MENA, Dar Al Arkan, URC, and across markets from the Gulf to Southeast Asia. I've launched master-planned communities, structured public-private partnerships, advised on national housing strategy, and built alliances with global hospitality brands. What I bring to every engagement: deep market fluency, commercial honesty, and a bias for strategies that actually get executed. I write and speak regularly on Saudi real estate, Vision 2030 opportunities, and the future of urban living β€” including as a commentator on France 24 Arabic, SkyNews Arabia and Al Ekhbariah.
