Welcome

Solving problems
one product at a time

*Often times multiple

Hi, I'm Ihaz! I like figuring things out by building.

I grew up on the internet, drawn to products that feel magical because they make something hard suddenly easy.

Right now, I'm solving everything money related for businesses at Volopay, taking them 0→1 leading Cards, Growth, and AI products.

I'm curious by default, and I like talking to people who are trying to bend the world a little.
