A Unique Blend
of Disciplines

My journey started with a strong academic foundation — completing my Matric in Science from St. Peters High School, Karachi in 2018, followed by Intermediate (Commerce) from Government Degree Boys College in 2020. These years shaped my analytical mindset and introduced me to the world of numbers and business.

Building on that, I pursued an ADC in Accounting and Finance from Shah Abdul Latif University (2021-2023), where I developed a deep understanding of financial principles, bookkeeping, and business operations. This degree gave me the tools to enter the professional world with confidence.

From 2023 to 2025, I worked as an Accountant and Auditor at World Group Pakistan — a role that sharpened my skills in financial reporting, bank reconciliation, general ledger management, and audit processes. Over two years I developed a reputation for precision, reliability, and delivering accurate financial insights.

Simultaneously, I enrolled in Software Engineering at Aptech Pakistan (2023-2026), driven by a belief that the future belongs to professionals who can bridge finance and technology. I am currently in my final year, building full-stack applications and expanding my technical skill set.

In 2026, I took my entrepreneurial ambitions further by launching my own Airbnb rental business in Karachi — managing everything from guest experience and dynamic pricing to property operations.
