I ran my first business, an online shop in Saudi Arabia, from 2017 to 2022, then sold it to focus on a corporate career. I studied for ACCA and finished a BSc in Applied Accounting at Oxford Brookes while working full time. I started at Marafie Consultancy in Riyadh, moved to PKF in Dhahran, then spent three years at PwC in Al Khobar and was promoted to assistant manager. I'm a CPA, an ACCA member and a CFA Level I candidate.
I don't hand-write code. I design these systems, direct AI tooling to build them, and test them until I trust them.
In March 2026 I set up Northlane Solutions, an aviation infrastructure company in Al Khobar that bids on airfield lighting and helipad work. I run it on a set of AI agents, with a person approving every price and every outbound document. That operating model, and my years in audit, pointed me at the bigger problem: Saudi companies still close their books by hand. Through Procul Solutions, the Saudi company I own, I'm building ProCul, an agent-native accounting product where agents post, reconcile and prepare the close and an accountant approves. It's the kind of AI-native ledger Rillet is building in the US, made for ZATCA and Zakat.
I'm at Kellogg now (MBA, Class of 2027, Finance and Strategy) and spend the school year in Chicago. I don't hand-write code. I design these systems, direct AI tooling to build them, and test them until I trust them. I also read model cards, repos and papers every day, and the AI radar on this site is the log of that. I'm building the link between US venture and Saudi capital, open to venture partner, scout and advisor seats, and founders and funds are welcome to write.
