Zainab is deeply passionate about creating social impact through storytelling and strategy. With a background in architecture, she has found joy in exploring its many facets while weaving narratives that make ideas resonate and inspire action. For Zainab, storytelling isn’t just about communication; it’s a tool to enrich strategies, create emotional connections, and spark meaningful change. Over the past eight years, Zainab has been actively involved in social impact initiatives, mentorship, and leadership, which have shaped her values and approach. She believes in the power of guiding others, sharing knowledge, and fostering collaboration, believing that growth happens when we work together. As Zainab continues exploring the intersections of architecture, storytelling, and strategy, she is committed to using my skills to bring ideas to life and make a difference.
