She is one of the few people of her generation who has been exposed to the Internet since the early days. She said that she started surfing the Internet more than 20 years ago. After her popularity on Instagram soared, she began to encourage them to volunteer. “My presence on social media is not to show the beauty of this country, but to show the joy of helping others,” she told Khalij Times.

Despite her popularity, she has not forgotten her UAE descent. She still wears a traditional UAE mask called burqa’a. This metallic accessory is handmade from delicate fabrics and worn on the face, traditionally worn by married women.

She is an ardent admirer of Shehafati Mabint Mubarak, the chairman of the National Mother, the Chairman of the National Women’s League, the Chairman of the Supreme Council for Maternal and Childhood and the Supreme Chairman of the Family Development Foundation.

“I see her as a role model,” she said.

“We drew inspiration from her because she has left a mark in every field.”

She said that the best way to serve the country is to volunteer for various social causes. Her work has been recognized by multiple government entities and private companies.

Umm Saeed has been a volunteer in many social awareness activities across the country. She drove to these activities to “send a message to young girls so that they can be independent and learn to do their own jobs.”
