Experience
Executive Director
May 2025 — Present
I lead the organization’s strategic vision, partnerships, and programs to address food insecurity among children and expectant mothers in Lebanon and Tanzania.With a background as a researcher and academic, I bring a strong commitment to data-informed decision-making, rigorous learning, and accountability, with a clear focus on sustainability and the potential for scale.This role involves close collaboration with local NGOs, academic institutions, and community leaders to co-create programs that are dignified, culturally relevant, and designed for long-term resilience rather than short-term relief. The work includes guiding program design, strengthening partnerships, and monitoring impact. I also steward BCF’s core values of dignity, transparency, inclusivity, and sustainability, ensuring that operations remain lean and that decisions balance compassion with evidence.
