Fadi is a youth facilitator and theatre actor who is passionate about making a difference in communities through the arts. He is also an advocate for the rights and freedoms of the LGBTQI+ community.
Fadi is from Old Damascus, Syria where he worked as a video editor and was enrolled in theatre studies at the Higher Institute of Dramatic Arts. As the Syrian civil war intensified, he was forced to leave the country and emigrated to Lebanon in 2017.
Assisted by the Canadian Embassy and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Fadi came to Canada in July 2021. After short stays in Toronto and Windsor, he chose to live in Hamilton. The city was recommended for having a thriving arts scene where he could grow as an artist.
