Who’s behind guest check?

Hi, I'm Laila! You may know me from Instagram & TikTok @laila_elnaggar, where I share mini vlogs romanticizing life in New York City. I’ve been creating short-form video content since 2021 and I’m excited to explore a new creative medium in my life.

I consider myself a homebody who also loves to eat, drink, and go out (I call it ~balance). guest check is where my thoughts and recommendations will live, and I hope you love it as much as I do.
