What's included in the trial?
Every trial is a little different—here’s what Zehra says about their trial:
We’ll have a quick intro call (usually under 30 minutes) where we’ll:
- Break the ice and get to know each other
- Discuss your goals and how I can best support you
- Align on logistics like time zones, meeting frequency, and communication preferences
After this call, once a mentee books a session, that marks the end of the trial period.
Hi, I’m Zehra. I’m based in New York, and I’m the founder and CEO of Savanah.ai, a generative AI platform that helps fashion and retail brands create high-quality product visuals without the cost or hassle of traditional photoshoots. We’re building tools that make creativity scalable and commerce more dynamic.
My journey started at Google in business strategy, followed by several years at BCG, where I worked across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. One of the most defining moments was helping launch a tech joint venture with Turkey’s largest conglomerate. That’s where I really caught the bug for building tech-enabled businesses.
I later pursued my MBA at Harvard Business School, where I explored startup ideas and worked on sales expansion with Formlabs. After HBS, I joined Metaphysic.ai in New York as the first business hire. I helped grow the team from 15 to 100, led business operations and finance, and played a key role in fundraising and scaling the company to its $1.4B acquisition.
These experiences led me to where I am now. Obsessed with how AI can reshape industries, accelerate creativity, and actually make people’s lives easier. Outside of work, I help lead Global Turks in AI, a community of builders, researchers, and founders. We organize AI events and conference in the U.S. to spotlight global Turkish talent in tech. I also contribute to the Forbes Technology Council, where I write about AI, entrepreneurship, and the future of work.
If you’re navigating your next step or figuring things out, whether it’s pivoting careers, breaking into consulting or big tech, navigating business roles at AI startups, applying to grad school, moving to the U.S. or NYC, or taking the leap to build something of your own, I’ve been through a lot of those transitions myself. I know how overwhelming (and exciting) it can be. If any of that resonates, feel free to reach out. Always happy to share what I’ve learned or just talk things through.
The real magic of generative AI lies in something more pragmatic: slashing operational costs and boosting creative velocity.

Businesses need to strike a balance: AI should be a tool to support human decision-making, not replace it entirely.
