Today, it boasts a vast network of nearly 80,000 dedicated team members and a fleet of nearly 1.7 million vehicles, ensuring seamless transportation services for customers worldwide.

Reflecting on her legal journey, Yalla shared, “My experience as a lawyer has been a journey – from being a young M&A lawyer in Big Law to in-house counsel and various pro-bono projects and experiences along the way. I’m just the second attorney in my family, following my grandfather. Even though I never met him, I strive to embrace his values of integrity and compassion in both my legal career and daily life.”
