Zainab first became interested in research after an internship abroad while studying urban planning, which later kickstarted her career with consulting. This led her to the public sector, first at the municipal level in social housing and transportation in Canada and later at the national level in animal product imports and exports when she moved to the UK. While much of Zainab's work has been in the public sector, she has also worked in consulting and the nonprofit sector, including the social enterprise space.
