  • I earned a degree in Design Engineering, with a focus on Product Design and Visual Communication.
  • Luc Devroye recognized me as the pioneer of avant-garde Arabic type after I produced the Slavian font as part of my typography explorations. On Luc Devroye's website (cg.scs.carleton.ca/~luc/arab.html), this is referred to as "Ahmad Shawki".
  • I am delighted to have been a pioneer in screen and product design in the United States, driving creative concepts at YOUniversal. One of my significant accomplishments was branding the new website for Flexjet, a Bombardier subsidiary.
  • In addition, I am honored to have earned international recognition, including the UNESCO Award in 2007 and recognition from the Design21 Society for my anti-global warming campaign. My path has also led.
