'''The 'What?''''
I am a University Innovation Fellow at Swarthmore College, where I am double majoring in Computer Science and Anthropology. I am an international student from Egypt and France and am involved on campus as an Associate at the Lang Center for Civic and Social Responsibility, a social-impact consultant and a Diversity Peer Advisor for other students.
My main focuses are social entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystems. I launched my first startup, [[wwwWww.haitihandson.org|Haiti: Hands On]], at the age of 13, focused on strengthening vulnerable Haitian communities through innovative education opportunities. I recently co-founded [http://wocotribe.com/ WOCO], a tech platform that enables the growth of innovation ecosystems in emerging markets, where I am currently Head of Ecosystem Development. I additionally work with the [http://globalstartupecosystem.com/ Global Startup Ecosystem], the world's largest ecosystem accelerator and host of groundbreaking events like the Haiti Tech Summit and Ghana Tech Summit.
