Projects.

LearnDari

The Dari your family actually speaks

A platform for learning everyday spoken Dari, the Afghan language many diaspora families speak at home, and one largely absent from apps like Duolingo. I built it solo as founder, designer, and engineer: a Next.js web app and an Expo / React Native iOS app sharing one TypeScript lesson engine, plus a custom in-browser CMS (autosave, version history, an audio recorder, and a native-speaker verification queue). 278 lessons across speaking and reading/writing tracks, 1,454 vocabulary words in 77 sets, conversation role-plays, an adaptive placement test, a Dari keyboard, and spaced-repetition review that syncs between web and app. All 512 native audio recordings are in my own voice.

Qalbi

A free iOS prayer tracker with personality

An iOS prayer tracking app where an animated mascot reflects your prayer consistency. It tracks your five daily prayers, streaks, and upcoming prayer times, with a companion that grows brighter the more consistent you are. I built it as a free, emotionally engaging alternative to paid prayer apps, and it's now live on the App Store.

Geneva Discount Furniture

Taking a family business online

A Shopify e-commerce storefront built for a family-owned furniture business. The previous site only showcased products; this one lets customers buy online. Launched April 2025 with real traction from day one, growing to roughly 100 daily active users and $17K in sales.

A custom inventory management system built for a family furniture business across 3 warehouse locations, tracking over 2,000 items. Before this, everything was managed manually. Designed with non-technical staff in mind: simple, fast, and reliable. Reduced stock incidents by 30%.
