Hi, I’m Kareem.

Scientist. Builder. Curious human.

This is a place for my ideas, experiments, and creative work. As I get older, I seem to long for a cohesive narrative that ties my pursuits together. I have a PhD in Systems, Synthetic & Physical Biology from Rice University, and I build at the edges of science, education, hospitality, math, and philosophy.

Currently working on:

• Robotic Coffee Bar: Bringing specialty coffee and automation together at the Glendale Galleria.
• MSL Research Tracker: A web app for aspiring Medical Science Liaisons to search, summarize, and organize therapeutic area literature.
• AI Web App Studio: Fast, customized AI-powered web apps for creatives and local businesses.
• Protein Design as Art: Exploring protein structures as generative visual experiences, inspired by bioengineering and aesthetics.
• Kinoko Bio: High-potency Lion’s Mane mushroom extracts using advanced biotech methods.
• Philosophy & Writing: Essays, experimental fiction, and idea fragments — from Gödel to matcha lattes.

This site evolves as I do. Thanks for visiting.
