01 — About BASE: DXB
I work on networks. I build at night. I travel when I can.
Network security engineer by trade. I keep traffic safe at GulfIT by day, and at night I'm usually building something at Forzateks — custom apps, websites, AI experiments. I'm particularly interested in what AI can do for businesses that haven't quite figured tech out yet.
Outside work, I travel. Mostly the Caucasus and Central Asia so far, with the occasional pilgrimage. The map below has the receipts.

04 — Forzateks AFTER HOURS
Forzateks — custom builds for people who don't speak fluent tech.
Forzateks is my IT shop. We build custom apps, websites, and AI workflows for businesses (and people) who want technology to actually work for them — not the other way around. If you have an idea, I have a Friday.

What 'AI for your business' actually looks like — a real blueprint
A walk through a data intelligence solution we designed at Forzateks for a 50-location food trading business. The example is supermarkets and kiosks — the blueprint works for almost any business.
