Empowering People to Own Their Story, Unlock Their Potential, and Create Their Future | Transformed 1,000+ Careers | Author of Skills vs Degree

I believe every person has a story worth telling.
And I believe that story can open doors you never imagined.

For me, that story began in a small bookbinding shop,
earning just 5 PKR a day.

No titles. No network. No perfect plan.

Just a willingness to learn, to try, and to grow.

That journey took me from the shop floor to leading creative teams, founding businesses, writing Skills vs Degree, and helping over 1,000 professionals take ownership of their career narrative.

But this isn’t about my story.
It’s about yours.

The truth is, your CV is more than a list of jobs.
Your LinkedIn profile is more than a page online.
Your personal brand is more than a logo or a headline.

They are the tools to own your story,
unlock your potential,
and create the future you want.

Over the years, I’ve:
- Guided job seekers in the UAE, GCC, and worldwide to land roles faster including PhD holders, doctors, bankers, and C-level executives
- Created over 1,000 resumes including 300+ free CVs to give back to the community
- Founded PromoPixel Studio and Inspirer World Community
- Led over 100 creative and photography projects
- Built a following of 15,000+ professionals and shared 3,000+ posts on growth, careers, and personal branding

If you’re ready to:
- Be seen for the value you bring
- Stand out in a competitive market
- Build a career that reflects your potential

…I’m here to help.

Because your starting point does not define your destination.

📩 Let’s connect your story deserves to be told.
