About Zak & Zu

Zak & Zu Marketing was founded in 2017 as a brother-and-sister duo (Zakiyya and Zuhayr) although we have also added some new friends to the crew over the years. The team has decades of combined experience spanning a variety of industries (life sciences 🧬, fashion 👚, food and beverage 🌮, etc.) and has worked for all types of orgs (from large companies like PacBio and Gilead to startups and small businesses). We are based in the San Francisco Bay Area but work with clients worldwide.
