Boy meets girl, boy and girl make Elves

Boy meets girl, boy and girl make Elves: When Abeer El Sisi’s mom told her to stay away from the black-clad rocker type guy at the end of the room during college freshman orientation, we’re sure she didn’t expect that her daughter would one day marry him. Years later, not only are Abeer and Karim El Sahy bonded through holy matrimony, but they also have a business between them as they balance between working, living, and raising a family together. Their union brought Elves to life, the AI-based digital concierge service provider that is meant to make your life easier. Enterprise’s executive editor Hisham talks to the husband-wife duo in the second episode of Making It and asked them about their business, and how they make things work.
