About me

Engineer by training. Builder by nature.

I'm a software engineer based in Cairo, building web and mobile products for clients across Egypt, the MENA region, and beyond. Three years in, I've shipped 8+ products end-to-end — handling everything from architecture to the final pixel. My focus is on software you can rely on: clean codebase, solid structure, and design that earns attention.

The journey so far.

  • 2023

    The beginning

    Started building web projects independently — learning by shipping, not just reading. The foundation of everything that followed.

  • 2024

    First real clients

    Took on client work for the first time — hotel management systems, booking platforms, and marketing websites that went live and stayed live.

  • 2025

    Going deeper

    Expanded into mobile (React Native, Flutter) and backend engineering (Python/Django, Rust) — building more complex products across more disciplines.

  • 2026

    CS graduation

    Completing a Computer Science degree — with 8+ real products already shipped. The credential catching up to the experience.
