Who I am
A life built with intention
The roots
Somali diaspora, two worlds
Growing up between cultures taught me how to listen without assuming and how to hold onto who you are no matter where you land. I also produce content in both English and Somali because the community matters to me in a real and practical way.
The student
Always learning, never arriving
BS in Business Administration. Now finishing an MS in Business Analytics. I believe the moment you stop being a student of something you start going backwards.
The builder
Founded Kulan Group Ltd
I built an education technology company from nothing. Four verticals, real impact on real people. I am the kind of person who sees a gap and cannot leave it alone until I do something about it.
The voice
Co-host of Intel Cast
I co-host a podcast because honest conversations shift things. I bring the same care to every discussion that I bring to every relationship.
The community
Co-founder of Rise Community Development
Legacy is not just about your family. It is about what you leave behind for the people around you. Giving back has never felt optional to me.
What home means to me
Somewhere with meaning
I do not picture a house. I picture a feeling. Quran in the morning. The smell of food being made without rush. A place where conversation never feels forced and silence never feels awkward. Somewhere warm enough that people do not want to leave.
The next chapter
Looking for a partner in all of it
Not someone to complete me. Someone to build alongside. Someone with her own fire, her own deen, her own vision who chooses to share the journey with mine.
The world through my eyes
Where I have been
7
Countries and counting
🇸🇴
Somalia
Where the roots are. Going back reminds you who you are before the world tells you who to be.
🇸🇦
Saudi Arabia
Standing in the Haram rearranges something in you. Some things cannot be explained, only felt.
🇶🇦
Qatar
A country that decided what it wanted to be and built it. Ambition in architecture form.
🇯🇴
Jordan
Petra. The Dead Sea. History you can walk through and touch with your hands.
🇪🇹
Ethiopia
Addis Ababa has a pulse. A continent finding its way on its own terms.
🇺🇸
United States
Home base for now. Where I am building. The list is not finished.
🇨🇦
Canada
A good reminder that the world is bigger than wherever you are standing right now.
Outside
How I recharge
Hiking
Long walks
Nature
Sunrises
Cycling
Camping
A long walk fixes most things. A good hike fixes everything else. The right person makes both better.
