Hana El-Samad
She/Her | Scientist/executive
Hana is a difficult person. She does biological science. She works on AI. She refurbishes furniture. She writes. She gets bored when she is asked to be a slice of herself. She gets angry when she is projected onto a two-dimensional plane. She cries when she is misunderstood. She is re-traumatized when she watches images of war. She writes about all of that — and she talks to to AI about it, too.
