Unfinished Story
Ever since I was a kid, I loved two things—computers and planes.
I grew up in a village with no internet until I was 13. Before that, I had only accessed the web twice, through a 56kb dial-up modem. I remember how, in just 30 minutes, the credit would run out, and it would take minutes just to load a single page. At that time, I’d only heard from others what the internet was like—how it was cool to play Counter-Strike online. But I had no such option. Instead, I created a local network at home, and bingo—at least now my brother and I could play together.
Even when I finally had proper internet, my life at the time revolved around school. I wanted to be the best, pushing myself in every subject, always competing, always striving. But no matter how busy I was, I always found time for planes and computers. They weren’t just hobbies—they were part of who I was. I spent most of my free time building computers, fixing them for others, and teaching myself new things. And no matter what, my dream of flying never left me. Over time, I built an RC model of a plane and taught myself how to fly it.
At 16, I moved to London, completely on my own. Just me figuring things out. London toughened me up fast. By 18, life threw another punch—my mum’s house was robbed. She lost everything. It wasn’t just about the material loss; it was about realising how quickly everything you’ve worked for can disappear.
While studying for my BA and MSc, I worked part-time, grinding through long nights, trying to balance studies, work, and this fire inside me to build something of my own. I thought I’d end up in banking, but my entrepreneurial drive crushed that idea.
So I took the leap. One failed startup after another. Ideas that seemed brilliant at first, only to crumble when faced with reality. The setbacks were brutal. But I kept going. Because deep down, I knew—failure wasn’t the opposite of success, it was part of it.
Now? Our startup has been nominated by Google. With just £150K in pre-seed funding, we’ve already hit breakeven. No shortcuts. No lucky breaks. Just persistence, learning, and a bit of madness.
At some point, I asked myself a question: what should we take with us from childhood into adulthood? The answer is our dreams. And so, I went back to mine.
If you love computers and cybersecurity, join our movement.
Planes remain in my story, waiting for their chapter—because just like dreams, they don’t disappear, they evolve, one step, one block, one flight at a time.
