Holly intern Majed Fitaihi has always known he wants to solve big problems.

‍

He’s dipped his toes into public policy, economics, and tech, all with the same ambition: building something that creates real-world solutions. But long before he discovered GovTech, long before he was an MBA candidate at Harvard, he was a kid, growing up between Saudi Arabia and Boston.

‍

His childhood experience in both countries shaped his desire to study economic policy in undergrad and diplomacy in his masters. Post-grad, he returned to Saudi Arabia, jumping around roles in the public sector, working on Neom (Saudi Arabia’s mega-city project), then on Saudi Arabia’s Human Capability Development Project, then finally going private as a Public Policy Manager at Meta in Dubai.

‍

Now, he’s back in Boston, getting his MBA with the plan of solving public problems with private sector structure. Holly came onto Fitaihi’s radar in his first year at Harvard Business School. As an aspiring founder and a mission-driven builder, Holly felt like the perfect place to get start-up experience and a lay of the land in government AI implementation.

‍

Here, he built out a full-scale, constantly-updating GTM dashboard that Holly is certain to use for years to come. Majed isn’t just leaving Holly with a centralized, way-improved source of metrics and data; he’s leaving every member of the team inspired and warmed by his friendliness, his intelligence, and his passion for problem solving.

We'll miss him -- just as we're sure he'll miss the Fairlife chocolate protein shakes, his self-described favorite snack in the New York office.

Majed, we cannot wait to see what you accomplish.
