About

2× Founder • Product & Growth Operator $500M+ GMV moved · 200M+ users · One exit ◼️ Self-taught coder at 13, first company at 16. ◼️ By 22 I was running a 100-person tech org at Pathao.com, shipping ride-hailing, food, parcels, and payments while fending off Uber in Bangladesh and Nepal. We crossed 10M users and $500M+ GMV. ◼️ I then co-founded Wind, turning stablecoins into a cross-border payments rail. Raised $3.8Mn (GFC, Spartan), shipped consumer + SMB APIs on six-week cycles. Exited to a U.S. telco. ◼️ Today, based in Singapore, I lead growth at Muslim Pro (170 M users). In nine months I doubled paid subscribers, cut churn ~25 %, and rewired pricing and paywalls—inside a 15-year-old company. Double/triple-hatting as leader for upcoming fintech initiatives globally + special projects. What I bring 🔹 Founder DNA – Thrive in 0 → 1 chaos and own the P&L. 🔹 Taste + Execution – Weekly ship cycles, sharp UX, metrics that matter. 🔹 Monetization Engine – Subscriptions, loyalty, and growth loops that print cash. 🔹 Cross-Market Range – Products live across Southeast Asia, South Asia, and the global Muslim market.
