Meet Our Founders

Joel
Co-Founder/CEO
Joel believes the key to a fulfilling life involves collectively leveraging skills, experiences, and opportunities to create communities of human flourishing. Through broad international exposure, he has learned the value of engaging with a diverse range of individuals and cultures to gain perspective and deepen human connection. His background in finance and startups brought him to Riyadh in 2017.

Matthew
Co-Founder/COO
Matthew has Master’s degrees in both Cross-Cultural Studies and in TESOL (Applied Linguistics for English as a Second Language). Even though he was born and raised in the United States, he has Arabic ancestry, and because of this has always had an interest in Arabic language. He initially took a teaching job in the Kingdom expecting to find a place to fulfill this desire, but instead found a huge gap in the market for learning Arabic language and culture.

Tim
Co-Founder/CTO
Tim has a strong tech background and a love for learning about other languages and cultures. He has been running his own web application development company for the last 5 years and has an additional 10 years of experience in IT project management, business and systems analysis, and system administration.
