At NOKNOK - GMRL, I’m leading noknok’s evolution from a grocery q-commerce app into an 11-product, multi-service ecosystem, aligning its core rebuild and new service verticals behind a phased roadmap. Since September 2025, MAU has more than doubled, AOV reached 1.8x baseline, and order frequency reached 1.5x baseline.

At SANDWALK, I co-founded a reward-based creator platform for MENA and owned product strategy from problem definition through prototype and delivery roadmap. Earlier, at MAJID AL FUTTAIM HOLDING | FUTURE SOLUTIONS, I led product definition for the flagship Super-App pilot and its integrated AI voice assistant; I also created and commercialised two strategy board games at BENK ENTERTAINMENT, generating more than US$200K in sales.
