I just received a box of

The only thing on my mind now is visiting Al Jouf and seeing these olive farms for myself.

One thing I have always known: I am a disruptor and a pioneer! I have always been driven by a burning desire to break new ground and not follow along.
No country was a better stage for me than Saudi Arabia!

Saudi Arabia properly began in 1932, but the region goes on LONG before that holding the biblical city of Dedan, home of The Nabataeans, The Holy city & the Frankincense trail to name a few. It is easy to see why anyone in love with history would be drawn to such a place. 👇🏻

I was sitting in a meeting in Draft cafe when Saudi Arabia announced women could drive. Everyone (men and women) cheered. That moment will never leave me, because it taught me that we do not have to distance ourselves from each other. Men are often the ones who support us most.

I think one of the biggest mistakes is to think you only need to be creative. You actually need to learn the business aspects of everything too. Such as legal requirements, proper communication, finance & correct protocols just to name a few.
