Fouad
was born in a small city called Alula which is located in the northwest of Saudi Arabia.
Then, he moved with his family to Madina, which has a religious significance to
all Muslims. He got his bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering from King
Fahd University of Petroleum & Minerals in Dhahran. Living in 3 different
cities in the kingdom has helped him a lot to be more flexible, open and easy
to get accustomed to different cultures. Fouad's family and friends have been a
great inspiration for him: from the wisdom of his father to the kindness of his
mother, from the humor of his siblings to the ambition of his friends.
His
favorite memory about PSU is his first course in the university, when he was
working in a team of five different people who were all smart, and they came
from five distinct countries and five different backgrounds. He said to
himself" wow this is a diverse campus." At this moment he realized
why many people advised him to come to Portland State
University. Fouad hopes that he will be remembered by all
the people he has met throughout his life as an honest, modest, friendly person
representing wonderful family, a peaceful town, a great country and an amazing university.
