The daughter of Syrian Greek Orthodox Christian parents from Tumin, in the Hama Governorate, she was the third of eleven siblings.[2]

Trained as a teacher, Dib taught Spanish and administrative writing. Many of her students were immigrants and children of immigrants, whom she taught to speak and write in the Spanish language. She was a member of the Caja de Previsión Social de la Provincia, the Centro Salteño de Investigaciones de la Cultura Árabe, and the Federación de Entidades Argentino Árabes filial Salta.[3] Much of her work was translated by Zaki Konsol, Juan Yacer, and Michael Nooman, and published in Syrian and Lebanese newspapers and magazines.
