About

  • AI Product Builder who sits at the intersection of product management and engineering. I don't just build features. I figure out which ones matter.

  • Currently co-founding Metis, an AI-powered stock analysis tool for Indian swing traders. Shipped 0-to-1 from concept to 25-user beta in 20 days.

  • 50+ products shipped, 8 across Saudi Arabia, and a founding journey that includes a YC application.

  • Previously co-founded Zashit, an AI credit card reward optimizer. Validated demand with 50+ waitlist signups and built the MVP.

  • I moved to product not because it's trendy. But because I realized knowing how to build isn't enough. You need to know what to build and why.
