After growing up and completing an undergrad in Pakistan, working on projects in UAE, and wrapping up a Master's in the States as a Fulbright Scholar, has been a founder in residence in Singapore at Antler, frequently travels to states and the Gulf for business, and with a home base in Pakistan.

Launched the product in the US market with a Product Lead Growth motion and data-driven decision-making foundation from day 1.
