About

Analyst by profession,
builder by instinct.

I operate at the intersection of business strategy and technical delivery. During the day, I translate complex stakeholder requirements into clear, actionable specifications that engineering teams can execute. Outside of that, I ship real SaaS products — end to end, from Figma to production.

My background spans Takaful insurance, investment banking, government immigration systems, and fintech. That breadth means I adapt quickly — whether I'm running UAT for a national transformation programme or integrating Stripe into a multi-currency invoicing platform.

I use AI-assisted development (Replit AI, Claude) to accelerate prototyping, which lets me take product ideas from zero to working demo faster than a traditional engineering cycle. My current focus: Aqquantz — a Malaysian CoSec SaaS — targeting acquisition, and GoldBurst HFT, an algorithmic trading EA for XAUUSD.
