About

Raising capital for founders through Dealfuze because apparently vibes aren’t enough to close a round. An independent VC scout with a passion for ed-tech and health-tech in emerging markets, aka places where innovation actually solves problems, not just boredom. Studied clinical pharmacy and founded an ed-tech startup at the same time because clinical pharmacy wasn't enough to fuel my creative juices. I am currently reading about LPs' VC deployment in emerging regions. I researched the factors that affect the internationalisation of venture capital into emerging regions, covering the UK’s VC in the MENA region. The research findings can be found in my series of posts under #VCinternationalisation

Pharmacists Squadron Commandant

Jul 2017 – Feb 2018 · 7 mos

Commanded medical logistics for 194 military units and led a squad of 15 pharmacists who moved meds like their lives and everyone else's depended on it. It wasn’t a startup, but it definitely had scale, chaos, and zero VC funding.

Head of Security

Jan 2017 – Jun 2017 · 5 mos

Oversaw security ops for military medical warehouses, AKA played real-life tower defense with pharmaceuticals. Ensured nothing walked out that wasn’t supposed to, including people.

Dec 2016 – Jan 2017 · 1 mo

Came in with no rank, left with the title “Most Disciplined Private” out of 3,000. If grit, compliance, and waking up at 4 AM had a poster child, it was me.

Founder

Dec 2012 – Dec 2017 · 5 yrs

Built an edtech startup before it was cool. Rejected a $200k pre-seed term sheet to bootstrap because my ego was bigger than SBF's ego. Placed 3rd in Egypt’s Dragons' Den, and helped students shadow jobs instead of influencers. Then, failed.
