A note about my name: Menah is a nickname that was given to me by my family when I was little. It’s not my official name, but it is the name I go by. If you’re unsure how to pronounce it; it rhymes with Layla (from the song).
You can also hear me pronounce it on LinkedIn by clicking on the speaker icon next to my name.
