Her first job was at Wendy's as a chef for three years. Then, she began working in a private Arabic school, making salads, serving, and cleaning the kitchen. Her diligence, focus, and perseverance allowed her to become the Kitchen Assistant. She prepared various types of meat and diverse foods for over 600 people.
After four years, she gained enough expertise to run an entire kitchen, from planning to execution, and stepped into her new role as the head chef at DSSK.
