AI that people actually use. Cultural intelligence that’s lived, not researched.
For eleven years I’ve worked at the meeting point of AI, digital strategy, and culture — across the Gulf and Europe, with global brands like Microsoft, government teams in the UAE, and founders building from nothing.
My work comes down to one problem wearing different faces: someone has something good — a tool, a message, a strategy — and it isn’t landing with the people it’s meant for. I make it land.
On the AI side, I build for adoption, not just deployment — I created Kanz AI, a tool designed so people would actually trust and use it. On the culture side, it’s lived, not researched: native Arabic, eleven years in-market, and a career spent translating between worlds where trust is what closes the deal.
