About Me

Full-stack developer with 3+ years of experience building web applications across industries including energy, logistics, and civic tech.

I work primarily with the MERN stack and Next.js/Express, and I've been increasingly involved in AI and data work integrating LLMs and building analytics pipelines with Python and Fast API. I enjoy projects where the two sides overlap.

Some of what I've worked on: Rebuilding a procurement focused ERP system at CNNC that reduced case processing time by 50%, developing a civic platform that helped prioritize road repairs across 200+ sites, and building a restaurant management platform for the Saudi Arabian market. Outside of work, I'm building projects I'm genuinely excited about, currently an AI-powered food discovery engine and an e-learning platform for youth in Pakistan.

Across these roles, I've worked on problems with real stakes and that's shaped how I think about building software: with attention to the people actually using it.

Open to full-stack or AI-adjacent roles where there's room to keep growing. Happy to connect.
