Hey, I’m Samina—you can call me Sam!
Discovering my love for startups was an ikigai moment: the perfect intersection of what I love, what I do best, and what I believe I can give to the world.
The rumors are true. Startups aren’t perfect. But it’s in this chaos that I find my most creative self flourishing.
The startup ecosystem allows me to solve problems without restraint. I can allocate resources within given constraints, choose inspiring people to work with, and have freedom of execution.
I’ve been involved in the startup scene for almost a decade. From winning competitions to securing seed money for my first business, exploring export-imports in the fishing industry in Asia, to my latest venture in Toronto, I’ve always been involved in some form of entrepreneurial adventure.
What Lonely Blue Pixel Is About
Right now I’m building Foam On Latte Inc., my web and app development studio.
Every week, I’m discovering new business ideas, working with and building for clients worldwide, testing design principles, trying AI tools, and learning what actually works (and what doesn’t).
Instead of keeping these insights to myself, I’m sharing everything I’m learning along the way.
