About Izham
On the floor. At the brief.
Project Director, Synapze Sdn Bhd
I run events for Malaysian ministries, GLCs, embassies and global brands. I've spent 9+ years on the floor, from MyDigitalMaker Fair to the U.S. Embassy's 9-state Freedom 250 roadshow. I have no coding background. I build with AI anyway. Touchscreen games for a tunnel groundbreaking, test-drive counters for car launches, costing tools for my own team, and a full AI album. This is where that work lives.
