Every journey has humble beginnings. Mine started in a quiet corner of curiosity—tinkering with blog ideas at age 12 and dreaming of something bigger.

"Companies fail, individuals don't"

A Teenage Hustler

By 14, I launched my first marketing agency in the UK. It tanked. But I wasn’t discouraged. I moved on to founding a development company—another miss. Each attempt was a lesson in resilience.

My early failures weren’t wasted. They sparked a deeper interest in tech, and I went on to earn a degree in Software Engineering. Initially drawn to quality assurance, I used my SQA skills to validate freelance development projects. That’s when the project management bug bit me. I realized the true impact a good project manager can have on team alignment, delivery, and ultimately, the product.

Baking by Day, Managing by Night

While exploring my path in tech, I was also managing my family’s bakery business, Freshbakes. It was a full-time job—procurement, daily orders, credit-based vendor management, and shop distributions. All while I was juggling freelance tech gigs and a growing interest in digital marketing and forex. Spoiler: those didn’t work out either.

But everything changed when I stepped fully into the project management role at Last Wave Technology. I went from overseeing freelance teams to leading SaaS development, building PMOs, and driving real impact through Agile processes and business analysis.

DEX & Web3: The Deep Dive

Among my most complex and rewarding experiences was managing the development of a decentralized exchange (DEX). The technical depth, compliance nuances, stakeholder coordination, and delivery pressures made it a crash course in advanced project management. It helped shape my confidence in navigating Web3, AI, and blockchain projects, blending traditional PM strategies with next-gen tech.

Today: Wearing Two Crowns

Today, I apply everything I’ve learned across tech, product, and delivery in my role as a PMP-certified Technical Project Manager at TheHexatown, while also modernizing internal systems at Freshbakes through automation and structured processes.

From launching MVPs like Al-Khalil Chat, Buraq.ai, Breathwork, 6 Pack Macros, and Zero Cheating to refining Agile governance and delivery frameworks, I’ve built and scaled systems that actually work.

Beyond the Resume

Outside work, you’ll find me planting in my small garden, learning Arabic, or practicing photography. These hobbies aren’t just escapes—they ground me and fuel the creativity I bring into my professional life.

Lessons So Far

• Start early, fail fast, and learn even faster.
• Balance isn’t a myth—it’s a method.
• Every technical role benefits from strong project management.
• Growth isn’t linear—but progress is always possible.

I’m not just managing projects—I’m building ecosystems.
