#2: Sarah Al-Hussaini - Level up on Ambition Sistership-Role Models in Tech & Entrepreneurship

    • Society & Culture

Working in investment banking, Sarah was no stranger to working in a male dominated environment. But it was a stable job supported and understood by her friends and family. The toughest decision she ever had to make was deciding to leave investment banking and join the tech industry - a step that wasn’t encouraged by anyone from her closed circle.


But it turned out to be the right decision. Sarah joined seven developers and became one of the founding members of ultimate.ai, a company that helps businesses like Zalando, Telia and Finnair scale their customer service with artificial intelligence. She is the COO of the company and is pushing full steam ahead to scale up the business.
