About

Azlan Allahwala

Ten years deep in enterprise Salesforce. Building AI tools that actually ship. Shooting photographs in cities most people only see from a plane window. I take things apart, understand how they work, and put them back together better than I found them — whether that's a platform serving 10,000 users or a frame of light falling through a train window in Tokyo at 6 AM.
