Halal Goodies

— For Businesses

Build with me

Your business generates data every day. Most of it goes unused.

I build websites and custom software that help businesses collect the right data, streamline their operations, and make better decisions — all in one place. No bloated SaaS. No off-the-shelf template. Just a solution shaped around your exact problem.

01

Custom Websites

A professional web presence built around your business — not a template. Fast, mobile-first, and designed to convert visitors into customers. From landing pages to full multi-page sites.

ExamplesLanding pagesBusiness sitesE-commerceBrand refresh
02

Data & Web Apps

Custom internal tools that centralize what your business does — replacing scattered spreadsheets and manual processes with one platform built specifically for you. Dashboards, booking systems, CRMs, client portals, inventory trackers.

Data Collection & Growth

Most businesses are sitting on untapped data. I help you instrument your product or website to capture the right signals, then surface insights that actually drive decisions — not just charts for the sake of charts.

What I Do

I'm a CS student at Hunter College who splits his time between writing software, teaching others, and helping people find work. I believe in learning by building — whether that's a data pipeline, a classroom lesson, or a career path for someone who needs it.
