A Life of Growth, Leadership, and ImpactTeens: Foundations of Curiosity and PassionAs a teenager, I was drawn to geography and history, which deepened my understanding of the world. Hobbies like cricket, stamp collecting, and coin collecting taught me teamwork, discipline, and attention to detail, shaping my character and perspective.20's: Professional Beginnings and Family CommitmentsIn my 20s, I started as a travel agent, gaining exposure to diverse cultures and experiences. Migrating to the U.S. was transformative, and my marriage to Nabeela became a cornerstone of my life. As the eldest of six siblings, I played a pivotal role in supporting my family’s settlement and future, fostering strong familial ties.30's: Leadership, Education, and Community ServiceMy 30s were marked by a commitment to community service, where I led a National Youth Organization of 60 chapters and 2,500 members. I also organized my faith community’s annual conventions, hosting thousands for 10 years. Pursuing higher education, I earned a BS in Computer Information Systems and an MPP, which fueled my entry into politics and the creation of www.statedemocracy.com, empowering civic engagement through technology. In 1998, I ran for Maryland House of Delegates and that lead me to work on www.statedemocracy.com.40's: Entrepreneurship and Political EngagementThe 40s saw the rise of V-Empower, Inc., recognized for its innovation, developing over 45 impactful applications. I supported over 50 political campaigns and ran for office four times. This decade also brought immense pride as my daughters embarked on public service, achieving remarkable milestones. Raaheela and Shabnam both served on PGCPS Board.50's: Navigating Challenges and Inspiring LeadershipDespite financial hurdles, I stabilized V-Empower while launching ventures like xCater (www.xcater.com), Wakuk (www.wakuk.com), and Meet Hour (www.meethour.io). I mentored young leaders who secured seats on the Board of Education, fostering a new generation of change-makers.60's: Mentorship and New PursuitsNow in my 60s, I focus on mentoring young professionals and preparing for a leadership transition at V-Empower. Revitalizing personal passions like philately, cricket, and writing, I aim to leave a meaningful legacy and foster collaboration for impactful initiatives.Reflections and AspirationsFrom curious teenager to mentor and leader, each chapter of my life has been rooted in service, resilience, and impact. As I move forward, I remain committed to empowering others and building lasting legacies.

MentorWww.Myghmc.Com Oct 2020 - Nov 2020Political Campaigns in India have always been about political parties and their leaders. In the last 73 years, the process has failed to build strong leaders on local levels due to individual or family influences in the party. The entire political process is stacked up against smart, educated, and civic minded individuals. Many excellent and independent candidates are not able to run unless the political bosses or power brokers bless them. We want to change that by empowering local candidates by helping them how to run campaigns on their own.
