About me

I've been writing code since 2006. Started with Android apps at university, ended up running production infrastructure for a bank. Somewhere in between I was CTO at two companies simultaneously, shipped 50+ projects, and accidentally built a few tools people actually use. I'm based in Manama, Bahrain. I believe good software is invisible.
