I’m Ahmad Mahmoud. I live in New Jersey, where I am working on the future.

My fascination with technology began at six years old, when I discovered I could reshape our family's digital world—starting with the computer passwords, much to my parents' surprise. That early curiosity never faded; technology remains my gateway to endless possibilities, each project opening new doors to explore.

In my senior year of high school, I landed my dream job at Best Buy, where I discovered my talent for translating complex technology into meaningful solutions for customers. Within months, I became the top-performing sales associate on my team, particularly excelling with Apple's ecosystem. My success caught the attention of Apple's regional representative, who personally recommended me for a position at the Apple Store. After six months of leading sales at Best Buy, I transitioned to Apple, where I could deepen my expertise in premium technology experiences.

Unlike many developers, I didn't write my first line of code until college. Starting my junior year, programming felt like learning a new language—frustrating, intimidating, but ultimately transformative. My Computer Science degree tested every ounce of determination I had, but emerging on the other side with both knowledge and resilience was worth every late night. Now, I'm building projects that aim to solve problems I'm passionate about, proving that when you start matters less than where you're determined to go.
