I grew up in a small village in the south of Iran, where my family owned a ranch and a farm. Life was simple, practical, and grounded, every day centered around the rhythm of the land. When I moved to the city to study at university, it felt like stepping into a different world.

I chose to study water resources and agricultural engineering, partly because it felt like a natural extension of the life I had known. But somewhere along the way, especially in the early 2000s, something else began to pull at my curiosity: programming.

Back then, software development felt like magic. I read everything I could get my hands on. Tutorials, books, forums, anything that could teach me how to make a computer do things I imagined. Later in university, I discovered I could use programming to solve real engineering problems. That changed everything. It wasn’t just a hobby anymore; it became a passion.

After finishing my studies, I served two years of conscription. When that ended, I returned to our family business. The ranch and farm needed me, and I worked hard, but a part of me still longed to pursue software. The biggest obstacle wasn’t motivation, it was the lack of high-speed internet in our village. For a while, it felt like the dream would have to wait.

Then one day, a small local company brought internet to our area. It was a turning point.

Suddenly, I had access to the world again. I stayed, continued working in our family business, and quietly used programming to improve our operations. But deep down, I always hoped for something more: to build a software company, to bring the ideas in my head to life.


What I didn’t have were the resources, the time, or the team. Running a family farm is full-time work. Building software is also full-time work. I couldn’t do both.


But the world changed, and so did the tools.

Today, I finally have a team.


Not a human team, but something surprisingly powerful: AI agents.

It started with GitHub Copilot, then Cursor IDE. A few days ago, I added Google Antigravity to my workflow. These tools don’t just autocomplete code, they collaborate, generate ideas, accelerate development, and help me build things I’ve dreamed about for years.


For the first time, I don’t feel like I’m building alone.

Now, I’m working harder than ever on my projects, projects that were once impossible because of limited resources. The tools I used to wish for are now sitting in front of me, ready to help.


The boy from a small village ranch finally has his software team.


And this time, the journey is just beginning.
