About

I am currently working as a full-stack developer at Microsoft Teams, sending Teams notifications to you ;) and 300M+ other users monthly (as part of the Activity and Notifications team here). Passionate about creating positive change, my proudest moment has been co-founding and building the DaanCorona platform to support SMBs during challenging Covid times. I continue to innovate at Microsoft, participating in Global Hackathons and securing accolades at various levels. In addition to my work at Microsoft, I’m currently dabbling in building File-FA and acting as a freelance Technical Advisor at OPD:Q
