About me

Saad began his love for the film and television arena early in his teenage years. He spent many after school days watching sitcoms like (Three's Company, Different Strokes, and his favorite, Silver Spoons). Movies like "Back to the Future, Ghost Busters, Top Gun and ET" to name a few, were among his "moments of wonder" as he recalls. It was those movies that sparked the fire within him and drove his heart and his curiosity to one day becoming a well-established filmmaker like others before him. Born in Cairo, Egypt and growing up within the Coptic Orthodox faith, Saad was immersed in family traditions all his life. At the tender age of 10 yrs. young, his family decided to migrate from Egypt to New Jersey and began a life within the heart of the metropolitan area. He later married and moved to California in the early 90's, where he began working on smaller projects in the industry and continued to learn the craft daily by being "hands on" and working as much as he could with short films, music video, documentaries and network television shows. After 7 years in California, he changed the course of his family's life, to be closer to loved ones, Saad and his wife and their two girls relocated in the year 2001, they moved to the state of Florida where he finished schooling and graduated atop of his class with honors.

Respectfully,
