Wael is a consummate storyteller – and more often than not, he’ll tell you the best ones over an amazing meal he’s cooked. His passions range from food, travel, hospitality and fitness to strategies, marketing and numbers.



With a rich background that includes working with global brands, leading agencies, and taking on client-side challenges, Wael understands people better than most. This makes him incredible at charming everyone he meets and even better at figuring out consumer needs.



His deep love of Arabic music, art and literature makes naming something that comes almost effortlessly and very naturally to him. He is known for trawling through the Arabic dictionary, Fairouz’s lyrics and historical text to find beautiful and obscure words with deep meanings to create some of the best names Yellow has ever come up with.



Often found: Mapping out his next adventure or whipping up a feast that defies all expectations.

A continuous learner who pushes herself harder than anyone else, Mamta is experimental, curious, passionate, fearless and constantly setting new goals for herself. This makes her the most natural and inspirational leader, who has created such a warm and supportive environment at Yellow that it’s genuinely fun to show up to work every day.



She has led a colorful career that started off as a designer to becoming an incredible project manager to a digital director to the head of growth to the GM of Yellow. And then there are all her side hustles as a podcaster, regular STEP moderator, marathoner and illustrator. As someone who always follows her curiosity, she is nowhere near done yet and we can’t wait to see where she leads us to next.



Often found: Setting new goals or rewatching Gilmore Girls. It’s called balance.

Mamta Varerkar

Stuart dreamt of being an astronaut when growing up. Or a fire fighter. Or a policeman. He never could make up his mind and he didn’t think it was necessary to. This open-mindedness and curiosity always has him learning new things, in both work and his personal life. He’ll decide he wants to be the next greatest photographer, buy the whole kit, pursue it with a passion and then set it aside because oooooh look, it’s a kite board!



He may really be the most creatively ambidextrous person we know. He jumps easily from developing the freshest identity for a food brand to the slickest rebrand for an industrial leader to creating the most lovable and playful brands for children.

A 100 tabs open at a time kinda researcher, Sarah is a strong believer in gathering all the data possible through surveys, workshops, interviews, deep dives into trends, cultural shifts and then taking a leap of imagination to help create category leading brands. Obsessed with figuring out market gaps, unmet needs of consumers, and coming up with new ideas, her brain runs a lot more than she does!



Her love of language, words and their origins makes crafting evocative brand stories, copywriting and naming her other talents. She often awakens in the middle of the night, filling her Notes app with name ideas and portmanteaus.



Often found: Falling down a Reddit rabbit hole or chasing her dog (the cutest puppy in the world) around the park.<a href="mailto:sarah@welcometoyellow.com"></a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-azmi-7065867/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

Our very own multitasking maestro. As office manager, Maritony somehow manages to keep us all on track whilst also managing her very long to-do list. Don’t be fooled by her sweet, giggly exterior. Entrepreneurial and ambitious AF, she has savagely climbed up the ranks over the years, with multiple side hustles and spending all her free time figuring out how to take her online business global.



When she’s not planning her next holiday (preferably some place with sub-zero temps) she’s helping us move offices, getting clients to pay up, sorting out our lives, and holding down the Yellow fort. The woman wears a lot of different hats and we are eternally grateful to have her on the team.



Often found: Binging K-dramas on Netflix or planning her next entrepreneurial pursuit.

Maritony Flores

Youmna heads up our creative team and is full of imagination, energy and style. A loud and vibrant personality, with an incredible eye for design, she approaches each project with her infectious enthusiasm.



Her eclectic tastes, passion for culture, travel and more hobbies than we can keep track of give her a holistic and worldly perspective that has lead to some of our best work yet.



Often found: At the gym or meal prepping for the week ahead.<a href="mailto:youmna@welcometoyellow.com"></a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/youmna-kanaan-105030191/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"></a>

We’re pretty sure Sweatha doesn’t sleep. It’s either that or she’s scarily good at doing the work of at least three people in a day. Organized, resourceful, completely unfazed by manic deadlines and 20,000 deliverables, the only time you know she’s under pressure is when she switches to a strange American-Indian accent.



A big believer of ‘if it takes less than 5 minutes, do it now’, she takes meticulous notes during workshops, emails the recap during the brainstorming session and can solve your problems before you finish telling them. Yes, she’s that good.



Often found: Exploring the great outdoors or binge-listening to Adele.

Sweatha Monichen

Meet Du-Toit (or DT for short), our very own golden retriever, full of boundless energy and enthusiasm.



As passionate about work as he is about carb loading with cookies and crisps, DT loves leading projects where the creative delivers on the strategy and drives change. His eye for detail, ability to win over almost any human and most pets, love for the craft and his impromptu Aretha Franklin tribute performances at the office make him one of our favourite Yellowers.



Often found: Adding another vinyl record to his collection

Du Toit Griesel

Meet Arwa Manager – so exceptionally skilled at account management, the universe ensured she has a name to match. With a remarkable knack for juggling multiple tasks and a sixth sense for spotting potential roadblocks before they even appear, Arwa is an invaluable force on any project team, particularly those navigating the complexities of production.



Along the way, Arwa also co-ran a restaurant with her husband — an experience that sharpened her instincts for building brands, managing chaos with calm, and making sure every detail, big or small, was never left to chance.



Often found: Sharing exclusive promo codes, creating spreadsheets no one knew they needed, and keeping everyone well-fed and happy.

When we want to know what’s hot in Dubai or what’s the next big thing, we ask Zeina. Her phonebook is the envy of all influencer agencies, and her Google maps is dotted with saved hidden gems.



She was too fun to be a psychologist and all that special talent goes to her social marketing, knowing what to post and who to target. Or being targeted (yes, she’s completely susceptible to online ads and always adding to cart!).



Often found: Enjoying some sushi, lounging on the couch, and browsing her favorite online shops for the next great find.

Zeina Ghoufran

Between her all-seeing eye for detail, and appetite for solving complex problems, nothing gets past Ash. That’s what makes her one of the most gifted designers we’ve had. Ash’s approach to design is not just about creating beautiful identities; her puzzle-loving brain brings depth and complexity to everything she develops. A constant learner, she has evolved over the years, bringing dynamism and movement to everything she creates by excelling in motion graphics and animations.



Often found: Recording her next ukulele cover or indulging in Public’s famous tiramisu at Dubai Mall. Again.

If there was an award for a brand designer that can find inspiration and smash a brief in the shortest amount of time, Gunj is your girl.



A cornerstone of a great designer is empathy, and Gunj has a special power of getting into the head of our clients and express their brand in a way that feels true to them. A visual and strategic thinker, she seemingly effortlessly creates contemporary, aesthetic and impactful identities, while entertaining us with her hilarious misadventures.



Often found: In Dubai Hills Mall or inhaling brownies while watching Schitt’s Creek

Gunjan Mathur

Joyce is the kind of person who tells it like it is – straightforward, no-nonsense, and unafraid to call out the details others might miss. Her sharp honesty is matched only by her care for the people and projects she invests in, bringing both heart and precision to everything she touches.



As a polyglot Art Director and Product Designer, Joyce transforms ideas into seamless, intuitive experiences. Whether she’s refining digital interfaces or bringing bold creative visions to life, her perfectionism ensures every detail is exactly where it belongs – her OCD tendencies wouldn’t allow for anything less.



Often found: Indulging in milk chocolate while meticulously rearranging her desk to absolute perfection.

Joyce Abbo

It’s always the quiet ones who burst out with some killer moves on the dance floor! Meet Jay, our globetrotting dancer and foodie, who is an absolutely powerhouse when it comes to making things move. An animation geek, he’s constantly testing new softwares and techniques, pushing boundaries and with a keen eye for 3D, keeping Yellow on the frontiers of design while being completely blasé about it.



Often found: Gaming on his PC and serenading his neighbours with his mad karaoke skills.
