About me

Hi, I’m Zena, a Product Director with 10+ years of experience building and scaling SaaS and AI-driven products. I specialize in zero-to-one product development, go-to-market strategy, and aligning product vision with business growth—often turning complexity into clarity (and revenue).

I currently lead product at a global employment platform, where I manage multidisciplinary teams and products that have delivered measurable revenue and operational efficiency impact and a positive impact on people's lives, especially in developing countries. I'm passionate about solving hard problems, mentoring product talent, and building tools that move the needle.

At Lebanon Connect, I’m looking to connect with startups, young entrepreneurs, researchers, and fellow innovators to share learnings and best practices and explore meaningful collaborations, especially those involving product strategy, market expansion, or AI-powered solutions.
