Known for her authentic presence and warm communication style, she has become a familiar face to viewers across the region. Her work spans a range of programs that explore social, cultural, and lifestyle topics.
Aya uses television as a platform to highlight stories that inform and inspire, reflecting her belief in media as a driver of positive dialogue. Her long standing role at Roya underscores her dedication to meaningful conversation and her commitment to amplifying voices that shape Jordan’s cultural landscape.
At BRIDGE Summit, Aya will speak about building trust with audiences, the role of local media in a digital world, and how presenters can use their platforms to foster connection and understanding.
In today’s information-saturated world, media fluency is as essential as reading or math. Yet a 2024 News Literacy Project survey found that only 39% of U.S. teens receive formal media literacy education, and just 18% can accurately distinguish news from ads, opinion, or entertainment. As students navigate increasingly AI-driven and conspiratorial media ecosystems, how can schools equip them to think critically, discern truth, and shape the digital world they’re inheriting?
