During her time in Cairo she also had the chance to study for six months with the state-owned Mahmoud Reda Folkloric Troupe in the Balloon Theatre in Cairo. She then became a soloist with the Reda Yassin Folkloric Troupe dancing at such venues as the Semiramis, Grand Hyatt or Dream Park. The same management was also representing Ranya as an oriental dancer, which allowed her to perform at various weddings, engagement parties or other occasions in the best hotels and clubs in Cairo.

Ranya currently lives and works as a dancer in Paris, France, but returns regularly to Cairo to work and study and further develop her dance skills. Ranya is a multi-award winner, including 3rd place at the Berlin Sommer Festival 2011 (Beata and Horacio Cifuentes), Suraiya's Egyptian Fever Competitions 2011 (1st place Beledi and Golden Era) as well as Liptov Orient Festival 2011 ( 2nd place Folklore).

She also holds a bachelor's degree Middle Eastern Studies, which allowed her to further deepen her knowledge about the oriental culture.
