About

I'm a data engineer and solo founder who enjoys building products from the ground up. I like taking ideas from concept to working products, designing the data model, building the backend, shaping the user experience, and handling everything from authentication and security to deployment. My first product was Dethrone, a social platform built around competition, rankings, and visible status. I'm now building and launching my second product, AskBrand. I enjoy experimenting with ideas, learning from real users, and figuring out which ones are worth taking further. I'm here to build, learn, and share the journey along the way.

Dethrone - A social leaderboard where status is earned, not given.

Dethrone is a competitive social platform where anyone can challenge the current king and climb the leaderboard. Unlike traditional social networks that focus on followers and algorithms, Dethrone revolves around ranking, competition, and status. Every challenger starts at the bottom and fights to reach the throne. Create a profile, build your reputation, track activity, earn your place in the rankings, and see who can hold the crown the longest. 👑 Challenge the king. Claim the throne.
