I have had the privilege to witness Dr. Zainabโs remarkable philanthropy and accomplishments up close over the years. This unique perspective has allowed me to observe, firsthand, the dedication, skill, and vision that she brings to her work.
Dr Zainabโs ability to build a beautiful family while achieving impressive career growth has been a profound source of inspiration to me. Her dedication to both personal and professional growth serves as an exemplary model of ๐๐๐ก๐๐ฃ๐๐ and ๐พ๐ค๐ข๐ข๐๐ฉ๐ข๐๐ฃ๐ฉ.
