Software engineer and entrepreneur passionate about AI, FinTech, and Game development. Building solutions that bridge technology and human needs.

Professional Journey

My professional journey began in 2020 during the pandemic when I was 14 years old. The August 4th Beirut explosion was a turning point - watching my country struggle motivated me to create impact through technology. I built a funding website for my mother's NGO "Beyrout Elna," which helped raise $600 for explosion relief efforts. This first taste of using code to solve real-world problems ignited my passion for software engineering. Since then, I've contributed to major open-source projects like Tor through Google Summer of Code, founded organizations, and built solutions that matter. You can still visit my first project at 607pm.net.
