What are the most memorable milestones in your professional journey so far?
The major developmental milestone in my professional career was the recent completion of Diaar AI-Muhraq Park, a large public park on a large island named Diaar AI-Muhraq in the Kingdom of Bahrain's northern region, for which we did the design and consulting work. The next major project we executed in Bahrain was a one-of-a-kind shipping container house. We also have a capable team that designs the truck along the island's shore borders. Furthermore, we created the hardscape and softscape walk in the sections leading to the NBR building, which was completed by us. Another project we worked on was the Dar AI Salam project, which involved building structures on the seashore. The most recent note
worthy project was the construction of over 100 beach houses in Bahrain. The design team may create a client's dream beach house by catering to their interests and needs. So far, these are the best milestone projects that I have completed along with the company.
What are your leadership approaches as well as the values and guidelines that you follow as a leader?

Our team's strong principles, mutual respect, and trust, which I believe are positively affecting my team and encouraging me to achieve excellence. Making decisions, which will ultimately aid in our personal and professional growth, is also one of the core guidelines I follow as a leader.
What was the inspiration that led you to build a landscaping business?
I learned about farming and gardening at a young age because I used to help on our family farms in northern Jordan, where I used to dwell. And as a family, we used to cultivate a variety of fruit trees, including grapes and peaches, as well as other crops. When I graduated from Jordan, I also worked on several well-known projects. I created the long river, which is more than 80 meters long and flows downstream through enormous gardens at the mountaintop palace. Following that, I traveled to Saudi Arabia, where I obtained great experience working in various royal palaces. Since I have a lengthy history of working and creating landscapes, I consider these projects to be some of the
Good leaders can motivate others, navigate changes successfully & remain positive all the time
