Can you tell us a bit of yourself? What do you do?

My name is Wael Abul Hamid Saad. I am from Cairo, Egypt I have been passionate about visual arts and colors since early ages I was rejected by fine arts college several times, I have a BSC in Computer science however I don’t believe in academic education or certificates I believe that we live the bright age of media sharing, and self education is right short path to success.

I worked for several companies in Cairo as User interface design / specialist and an art director in some advertising agencies in Cairo I also worked as a head of creative team in Yahoo! Maktoob office in Cairo before it shuts down its doors in 2013.

Since then I established a creative studio called ARQQA that offers 360 creative digital solutions specially when it comes to online presence and advertising.

Until present day I am working to grow ARQQA along my team struggling in the economic situation of Egypt after the Jan 5th revolution, yet we are surviving and we will.
