Head of Social, DoorDash

Under her leadership, Duolingo’s TikTok presence grew from 50,000 to more than 17 million followers, transforming the platform into a cultural phenomenon powered by humor, community, and creative risk-taking.
Known for her bold creative instincts and deep understanding of digital culture, Zaria now oversees social strategy, community engagement, and creator partnerships that drive authentic storytelling at scale.
