I founded Olunix and built Vantage, a positioning tool for founders. I also run the Deal Partner program at Boardy, where I help founders meet the right people.
A positioning workspace for founders. It turns the three hard questions (who is this for, why does it matter, what do we say) into something you can actually work through, instead of another blank doc.
I designed and built it. Launched March 2026, out of the positioning work we kept doing by hand at Olunix.
Olunix

a little context
Born in Egypt, moved to Canada at eight, based in Toronto. I studied Automotive Engineering Technology at McMaster, which is where I learned to think in systems. Marketing is where I learned to think about the people inside them.
Outside of work I serve as a ministry intern at Hope Bible Church in Oakville.
