Biography

Dina grew up in the Bay Area and studied anthropology and archaeology at UC Berkeley. Her fascination with the culture and artifacts of humankind stemmed from a powerful desire to understand her own mythology as an Egyptian-American. In addition to her first love, the monumental architecture of ancient Egypt, Dina also studied the art history and architecture of the ancient Mesoamerican Cultures - the Aztecs, the Mayans and the Incas, and Native American and North African folklore. As part of her training, Dina worked at the University of California Archaeology Museum handling precious artifacts such as textiles, baskets, parchments, and even human remains. Dina went on to work as a curatorial assistant, helping collect and catalog modern art, ancient artifacts, and precious oral history. Dina endeavored to marry her passion for our ancient origins with modern storytelling by forging a career in entertainment.

Dina speaks Arabic and French and has a flair for languages and accents. Her thirst for adventure has taken her around the globe, visiting ancient ruins in Cairo, Luxor, the Mayan Riviera, Italy, France, Spain, Wales and Scotland. The aspects of ancient cultures that interest her most are the ideologies centered around esoteric knowledge, spiritual beliefs and healing traditions. As a consummate art lover, Dina loves to learn about modern-day cutting-edge artists and frequently attends exhibitions in Los Angeles.

In addition to exploring the globe, Dina's also a bit of an adrenaline junkie. As an amateur gymnast and acrobat for most of her young life, she likes the rush of being upside down. She loves fast cars and most adventures aren't fun for her unless she's just a little bit scared... When's she's not working, Dina loves to dance (mostly in her living room), cook comfort foods, hike, and listen to music really, really loud.
