Available for new projects · Websites · Web apps · AI tools
I'm Abdullah, a web developer based in Lahore, Pakistan.
I started in construction in the UAE, then worked as a barista in Dubai. I taught myself web development, starting with HTML and CSS, then Webflow, JavaScript and frontend tools. Ahmed Qayyum guided me when I started learning.
Today I build websites for client projects at Jaryah Studios, and I take on freelance projects directly. I have also built my own products, like Suboptima and LUMIO.
