About Me

Building apps that matter — with care for every detail.

I'm a passionate Android engineer with over a decade of experience turning product ideas into polished, high-performance mobile applications. I care deeply about the craft — clean architecture, maintainable code, and user experiences that feel effortless.

From delivering food to millions in Kuwait as part of the Carriage team, to building fintech products at Tap Payments and the National Bank of Kuwait's digital bank — I've shipped apps that earn real trust from real users.
