01 / ABOUT

A career shaped by
curiosity and change.

I am a Canada-based professional with a background spanning engineering, international business, digital marketing, and technology-driven market research.

Originally trained as a civil engineer, I spent more than two decades living and working in the United Arab Emirates, gaining experience in international business and commercial environments.

My professional journey eventually led me toward digital technologies, search engines, and data-driven marketing. Over the past several years, I have worked with businesses targeting North American markets, focusing on technical SEO, digital visibility, analytics, and emerging AI-powered search technologies.

Today, my interests extend beyond digital marketing into market intelligence, international B2B development, and the use of artificial intelligence to identify and evaluate business opportunities. I am particularly interested in connecting structured research with practical market validation.
