About

Hey there, it's Saad. An average INTJ-T simpleton obsessing over numbers & music. And everything in between. I write stupid codes to build simple products that solve complex problems.

It's my old site, baked back in 2015. It will take 1 click to check out my updated site at saad.ninja.

With my professional hat on, my fields of expertise include native mobile & web application development, rapid hardware prototyping, instinctive UI & Interaction Designing (IxD), and UX research. Experiences include affiliations with a bunch of local start-ups at their growth stages & anti-disciplinary team collaboration to analyze Human-Centric Design (HCD) in software development and use them as channels to reach target customer segment for enhanced connectivity & sustainable revenue stream.

Other than all the professional crap above, I identify myself as a panda. Pandas are solitary creatures who prefer the freedom of being alone. My 3 M's are music, mochaccino & memes. My 3 P's are poetry, photography & pandas. My 3 C's are coding, creating and collaborating.

Oh, and there are some links below that you don't have to click.
