About me
I’m Saja Abu Maizar, a technology learning and development professional based in Jerusalem. My work connects the structure of computer science with the practical decisions that make learning accessible and useful.
At Appleseeds, I develop technology learning programs and instructional materials, train and mentor instructors, and adapt content for different audiences, including Arabic localization. Earlier, I managed a regional network of more than 10 educational centers, reaching more than 500 participants and leading more than 15 instructors and coordinators.
I hold a B.Sc. in Computer Science from Hadassah Academic College and am pursuing an MBA specializing in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. I’m interested in roles where pedagogical judgment, technical understanding and product-oriented problem solving inform one another.
A progression from teaching to designing and leading.
