Riza

hey, i am riza.

cofounder @ starcy, we are building openclaw for ios.

i'm 16, 8x hackathon winner (3rd @ openai codex, silver at an international coding comp in dubai, gold at malabar techfest), top100coders fellow, stage 2 qualifier at the international olympiad in ai (INAIO), toastmasters international finalist, founder of zerograd (a 500+ member gen-z builder community where you rank up by shipping code), and got invited to dinner by yc partners like jared friedman and jon xu, plus mukund jha (ceo @ emergent) at yc sus.

before that i built an automated coin-sorter that went from a local prototype to state-level talks with govt ministers about fixing labor bottlenecks at the sabarimala temple (the CM of kerala personally awarded me for it), placed 2nd globally in dubai with smart goggles on a raspberry pi zero, keynoted IRCC at 14 alongside nambi narayanan (ex-ISRO), and played u12 for kerala blasters.

i got interested in startups way back and started coding at 9 by building minecraft plugins during school lunches, all the way to here.

kerala, in
