Superwoman Sumayyah AlSuwaidi is what you would call a modern-day art genius! From designing websites and graphics to art, jewellery and fashion the Emirati content curator can curate it all.

A mother, a wife, a thriving entrepreneur, an OG artist, the 20 in 1 talented Sumayyah got her flair for all things creative and artistique at the age of 16 when she first got hold of a computer and started exploring Adobe Photoshop.

Dabbling in art and fashion, the 40-year-old has her hands busy with her upcoming line of trendy yet timeless jewellery pieces and handbag collection.

Fun Fact #1: Sumayyah revealed that she was one of the first in the country to have access to the internet back in 1996

Fun Fact #2: She designed her website from SCRATCH (that means HTML and Java coding all the way) *All hail Queen Sumayyah*
