Riham El-Ounsi

Riham was born in Kuwait in 1988. Shortly after, her family moved to Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, for a little over a year before moving to the States. Her father worked for the United Nations, which was the main reason for the frequent moves. Her mother is a dentist. After living in the US for a few years, her family relocated to Rome, Italy, for another 2 years, only to move back to New York. These frequent moves have allowed Riham to assimilate and work with people of other cultures easily. Riham graduated from the University of Massachusetts in 2010 with a degree in history in the hopes of going to law school shortly after. While attending the university, she worked with the University Programming Council (UPC) and had the opportunity to work with names like Ludacris, LMFAO, Paramore, and Lupe Fiasco, to name a few. After working with UPC, she realized that a career in the entertainment industry was a better fit for her.
