If you met me at a coffee shop and asked “what are you up to these days?”, this is what I'd tell you.

Life

Living in Colombo, Sri Lanka with my beautiful wife Mifrah and two little daughters.

As a family, we enjoy going for walks and reading together. One thing I'm super proud of: both girls started reading way early. Currently reading Harry Potter with Aleena so she has someone at home to talk to about her favourite stories.

Occasionally get dragged into My Little Pony episodes that test every ounce of my patience. And Harry Potter movie nights.

Always wanted to learn music. Currently learning piano by composing my own pieces. The goal teaches the technique.

Once lost a domain I cared about because I missed a renewal email. That frustration turned into a product. More on that soon.

Work

The Smartestway

Running product for an ed-tech startup across European markets. Figuring out how to make students actually enjoy studying. That's harder than it sounds.

Music

Between Your Pauses

My first piano piece. About the space between presence and absence. The kind of silence that isn't empty. Releasing June 2026.

Building

A SaaS product

Solving a problem I've lived with for years. Currently in stealth with a small group testing it. More soon.

Based in

Colombo
