HOME / LINA BIO & PRESS KIT
I run a Saudi construction company. I write about what we build.
Co-founder and COO of Atlantis. Writer of the Saudi Construction Journal. Six years across 75+ projects in the Kingdom — government, commercial, infrastructure, residential handover.
VIEW PRESS →Finding a life perspective.
Built in different places at different speeds. Saudi Arabia taught me scale and trust. The craftsman puts you on the approved list. The installation sequence decides whether you pass inspection.
Most construction reports reach 1000 expert readers who could speak your jargon. I'm after the territory in between: the project director, the procurement manager, the developer who signs the specification.
My building work is expanding — operating across the Kingdom and Egypt, in residential delivery, infrastructure, and hospitality. Writing to document how I choose and carry it.
The craftsman puts you on the approved list. The installation sequence decides whether you pass.
The journey so far.
