Bio
Christopher Ali
Zied offers a dedicated focus, which allows him to share his wealth of expertise with the teams and clients he works with. His ability to strike the right tone, and balance insight with collaborative analysis makes him the type of person I wish I had more of on any project I found myself on. He is not shy in taking on new roles or new learning, and I often found that his ability to operate independently, but not hide in a silo was not only tremendously helpful; but also inspiring.

Ziad and I served on the National Bank Mobile project where I was the project manager. Ziad had tremendous ideas and was always supportive of our colleagues and customer, even when his own workload was overwhelming. He’s top-notch in what he does and a wise person who’d make a tremendous addition to any development team. I wish him nothing but the best !
