My Journey

From Egypt to India to Dubai: how I got here.

01 · Egypt · Until 2022

Where it started

Studying Information Technology and Computer Science at MUST, and freelancing on the side: small projects on Upwork and Fiverr, and for people in my network. That is where I learned to ship for real clients.
