He is a rising figure in the field of Egyptology, a poetic archaeologist, and a tour guide.He studied at the American University in several different departments, enabling him to perceive and discuss history from multiple perspectives.He has given tours all over the country; organized talks and debates in universities and cultural centers and worked with Zahi Hawass. I was born in Cairo, the City Victorious, on the 25th of February, 1980.My father had a lovely library where I learned that longevity is a measure of how many books you read.As we treasure what we measure, he has taught me that the quality of my life mirrors the quality of my books.You are not just what you eat, but also what you read.My father was an awesome author, his magnum opus is Ahmed Seddik.Thanks to his latitudinarian attitude, I had the luxury of leisure to spend 13 years in college.I have no triskaidekaphobia, fear of the number 13.In fact, I have nothing to fear but fear itself.This is what the word school etymologically means: leisure.There, I have studied almost every branch of knowledge.I learned to speak with humanity and humor.Or, as I put it, with hilarity, clarity, and jocularity.I used to sit in on lots of classes I hadn’t even signed up for.Academic life was fascinating and American teachers were most munificent.One of the most influential teachers in my life was Dr.Andrew J.Main.Whenever I give a talk I recall his passion for teaching and learning.I have befriended many of my teachers to the point of co-writing, co-lecturing and co-guiding.That gave me an easy transition to climb up the professional ladder.They have encouraged me to wear many of their hats and apply them at the drop of a hat.As a student, I have received a multitude of invitations to take new courses from my teachers.Then, I started receiving a plethora of invitations to be a guest speaker.Currently, I am permanently invited to speak at several institutions and cultural centers about my favorite subjects.Those encompass art and science.
