Chris Zaki
Chris is a Law/International Relations graduate from La Trobe University who has recently joined Dearin & Associates as a Trade & Economic Research Intern.
With a deep appreciation for foreign cultures, Chris chose to couple his passion for International Studies with his interest in legal and regulatory frameworks.
Chris’s primary passion is the MENA region where he maintains a lifelong interest and a strong family connection. Being of mixed Egyptian and Assyrian parentage, he is well equipped to identify the cultural barriers which Australian firms are likely to encounter when venturing into MENA markets. Chris has sought to represent both the Coptic and Assyrian communities through various community engagement programs in order to foster cross-cultural understanding among the broader Australian community.
In undertaking this internship, Chris is seeking to build practical business skills whilst also converting his unique knowledge of the MENA region into tangible business outcomes for clients. He speaks both Arabic and Assyrian.
