I grew up in Lebanon but NC has my heart and my earliest childhood memories. In Lebanon I was a part of Scouts Du Liban where I served my community by collaborating with organizations such as the Lebanese Red Cross. I currently work with a Clayton-based company, Edge Printed Products in Client Services. During my free time I love to explore our state and find the best places to play sports and hang out with friends. I am dedicated to giving back to our community and bringing awareness to organizations that our state has to offer.

Hi! I'm Yara Haidar, Head of Social Media. In 2019 I received my Bachelors in Economics with a Minor in Business from East Carolina University. I currently work for TriTek Technologies as the Sales and Marketing Manager. Through my experiences with both corporate companies and local organizations, I've found a passion for supporting my community. With social media at my fingertips, I love to share places in NC that showcase how beautiful fun our state can be. In my spare time I love to travel the coast and enjoy our NC sunrises. I am dedicated to sharing our beautiful state and connecting with organizations that support our mission and strive to improve our community.

I'm a Raleigh native with a strong dedication to serving my community. I earned my Bachelors in Communication and Masters of Public Administration from North Carolina State University (GO PACK)! Throughout my studies, I focused on public policies and programs that targeted food accessibility to the youth of NC. I've worked with nonprofits, such as the Triangle Lebanese American Center and Artsplosure, to bring cultural awareness and an appreciation for local art to our community. I am passionate about the impact I can have on my home state by bringing positivity and opportunity to our area!

I've grown up in Raleigh, NC and have spent a lot of my time traveling the state for the best views.
