05 · About

Raja Shahnawaz Soni

Twenty years of enterprise master data in Dubai — making messy data behave, at scale, for a living.

Evenings and weekends go to the other work: a free study platform built for my daughters, World Cup games for friends, experiments in what one person can ship. All of it starts the same way — try kar ke dekho, try and see.

Dedication

For my mother, on her day — with love and quiet gratitude.

For my father, who taught me to move with care, and to recognise what to leave behind.

For Shazia, Alishba, Inaayah, and Buffy — my family, and my reason.
