Mohammad Orwani
I am a dedicated researcher with a foundation in media studies from Damascus University’s Faculty of Media. My expertise lies in leading Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) research, creating interactive visualizations, and conducting in-depth data analysis.
I take pride in uncovering key insights that shape impactful research and enjoy training my colleagues in the latest OSINT techniques and tools.
My professional journey includes roles as a Researcher at the Observatory of Political and Economic Networks, Editor and Storyteller at MiCT Media Foundation-khatt30, and Journalist at Smart FM.
I have a strong interest in podcast production and in conducting research that methodically distinguishes facts from myths. Outside of work, I find peace in tending to the plants on my tiny balcony, where I reflect on the beauty of nature.
