ABOUT SAHR SAFFA
My name is Sahr (rhymes with car) I am the Founder at C-Tribe Festival + Conference: an arts, technology and creativity festival driven by diversity. I was also a part of a Bay Area startup, AutonomIQ, that specializes in AI-enabled software testing, as the Director of Marketing/Canadian Ops that Sauce Labs acquired in 2021. I stayed at Sauce Labs to support go-to-market enablement.My next (not so fun) adventure is launching and growing a venture studio.My ultimate goal here is to remain cool enough so that I’ll never have to write my own LinkedIn in 3rd person.Most proudly, I\'m a stay-at-home son to two awesome parents and a sister, a stay-at-home boyfriend to an amazing girlfriend, all of whom I love very much.Please get in touch with me so we can connect!
