Having started my career in 2001, as a network engineer at the time, I have been lucky to witness the evolution of technology from being considered as an overhead to becoming a fundamental business enabler. Over the years, I acquired an interest in entrepreneurship have successfully co-founded 2 companies. In 2006, Crystal Networks saw the light. An IT system integrator focused on delivering innovative solutions to clients across the Middle East. Through strategic partnerships and expansion, Crystal Networks has grown into a multi-million-dollar company with a strong presence in Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE, and Iraq. In 2017, ABSEGA was born. A cybersecurity service provider that specializes in protecting organizations from emerging threats. ABSEGA offers a comprehensive range of cybersecurity solutions to clients in Lebanon and Egypt, helping them safeguard their critical assets. I also managed to steer both companies in turbulent times and keep them both afloat and performing. My vast experience in the layers of technology ranging from network infrastructure to cybersecurity, and the interactions with clients spread across the Middle East and Europe, has helped me grow a curious and open mind. Always looking for innovative ideas and solutions that would advance clients’ businesses and enrich their customer experience.
