An enthusiastic parent, writer and entrepreneur, Amro Abu-Hmaidan has been inclined to the creative arts since childhood. He started drawing and painting at the age of 12, and continues to use his knowledge & experience to create compelling digital and printed art.
Being a parent of two, he identified a dearth of quality digital content in Arabic language for children. This has led him to create his first project - 3asafeer.com, an online platform that has great stories and educational content for children. His narration is engaging, easy to understand and ably supported by great visuals, capturing the imagination of young minds. Some of his popular stories are "The Caramel Dragon", "My Dad's Secret Weapon" & "Why Am I A Square!". His stories are available online, through mobile apps and as printed books, to cultivate and encourage reading habits among children.
Amro hails from Jordan and currently lives in Dubai, UAE with his wife and two children.
