Following Palestinian exodus, they had to leave their home in Nazareth and move to Syria. From there they gone to Tunisia, then to Greece and finally settled in Washington DC.

Mohamed lived with his parents, grandmother and 7 siblings. His father was a professor, an educator and a writer. He was a provider for his family, that’s why his kids, including Mohamed, felt secured.

After graduation from school Mohamed continued his education in North Carolina State University. After that Mohamed connected his career with real estate projects. At first he worked as a designer. According to Mohamed Hadid words, he had always dreamed big and was always ready to take big projects.
