What I'm looking for

I'm looking to leverage my experience building, scaling, and transforming organizations to drive strategic success, innovation, and significant advancement across technology and other sectors.

I've co-founded Trafalgar AI, setting its vision and strategic direction while guiding AI product development, market positioning, funding, and operational team building.

As Partner at Travel Otleh, I lead strategic direction and operations, cultivate partnerships, and drive business development to expand the travel company's market reach.

I've led organizations including Unifonic, Tkiyet Um Ali, and Burson Marsteller Public Relations, overseeing growth, operations, fundraising, strategic communications, and high-performing teams across the region.

I also advise, mentor, coach, and serve on boards for startups, helping founding teams scale, enter markets, improve operations, and strengthen governance.
