About

Entrepreneur-turned-VC. Equipped with 14+ years of experience in leadership roles between corporates, startups, and global startup accelerators. With a growing global network of founders, LPs, VCs, and enablers, I’m on a mission to empower founders and develop ecosystems.

Expert at strategy formulation/execution, building/managing teams, B2B sales/partnerships, product and business development, fundraising, due diligence and investing in and working with founders in early stages.

During my time with Wuzzuf (the top recruitment platform in Egypt), I was part of the core team who scaled the business from pre-seed to series B.

Mentorship motivation

  • I am looking for new investments
  • I want to give back to the startup ecosystem and entrepreneurs coming up
  • I want to scout for new opportunities in engaging as an advisor or for a board seat

because 1) I made it my mission to help founders across the region succeed and 2) I honestly feed off founders energy and learn a lot working with them.
