Hi @bae-teams, super happy to be here with you all. By way of quick intro, I’ve been working in / with startups on and off since I was 18 (which was a while ago, mind you!), and I love working with early stage teams and entrepreneurs … helping people build their foundations and get started. I studied political science and international econ, worked in media, volunteered and worked staff on multiple political campaigns (both partisan and non-partisan, both in the US and Lebanon … and I find a lot of similarities between working on startups and working on political campaigns), and have some other interesting work experience that maybe we’ll get deeper into one day. 
I love my work so much that sometimes I get confused between what is “work” and what is “not work” … but outside of the startup work I play music (I’m an amateur cellist), writing poetry, hiking, and dancing (dabke anyone?).
I’m really excited to be working with teams in this cohort who are in different geographic … both different parts of Lebanon, and abroad. We have a really great cohort of teams coming on board for this round of Bootcamp (Round 15 for us!!), and I look forward to a great experience with you all, and see the amazing progress that all of you make in the coming weeks and months!
As for the truths and lies part … well, one lie (in the topic title) is that I ALWAYS tell the truth. I really do do my best to do that … but every once in a while, white lies are sometimes helpful.
So for my ACTUAL two truths and one lie, here goes:
• Part of my childhood chores included milking the goats
• I’ve hiked almost half of the Lebanese Mountain Trail
• I was a competitive snowboarder in college
Thoughts? Guesses?
Cheers!
