Message

As a freelance Technology Consultant, I advise businesses on IT strategy, system selection, and technology adoption. I support ERP data cleansing and migration, and prepare management-level AI presentations while building and discussing AI-driven apps and tools.

At Matic Services, I led end-to-end systems integration projects connecting IT platforms across technology and business partners. I also managed outsourced web and mobile application development projects, working with teams across IT, data analysis, marketing, operations, accounting, and customer care.

At MindShare (MENA), I created and led the MENA Search division and built the digital trafficking department from the ground up. Earlier, at Magna Media FZ Company, I progressed from Junior Developer to Operations Manager, architecting and developing web and database-driven projects.
