I’m an entrepreneur and business strategist with a global mindset. My mission: to empower students, aspiring entrepreneurs, and business owners to amplify their impact through strategic action.
Since my school days, I’ve aspired to do creative things, help others, and instigate meaningful change in the world. Passionate about innovation, science & technology, and learning by doing, I also hold a special place in my heart for travel and the unique perspectives it provides.
My core beliefs are rooted in curiosity, experiential learning, sustainability, and gratitude. I draw ideas from life’s vast canvas and ingeniously apply them to businesses, nurturing enterprises that exert a positive social impact while meeting our financial and mental needs.
I thrive on collaboration, contributing and creating value to advance positive social change and the growth of innovative ideas. Let’s embark on this journey to reshape the world one step at a time.
Perhaps you’re wondering about the journey that shaped these beliefs, the milestones that marked my path, or the inspirations that sparked my vision. If you have a moment, I invite you to join me on this exploration of my life’s work thus far. If you’re in a hurry, feel free to leap to how we might work together. Either way, I’m delighted you’re here, and I can’t wait to explore the potential of our future collaborations.
The Road So Far
An Odyssey of Learning and Leading
My fascination with science and technology was sparked in my family environment where education and ethics were held in high regard. This passion led me to pursue an Engineering degree from the esteemed Integral University, and this choice was where my journey truly began. As I explored the world of science, the arena of business strategies intrigued me, setting the stage for my later pursuit of an MBA from the same institution.
My foray into the entrepreneurial world, filled with ventures and projects, saw both exhilarating highs and humbling lows. Each step – successes, failures, and everything in between – taught me resilience and the value of learning from experiences. This rollercoaster journey refined my skills and understanding of the entrepreneurial ecosystem.
One milestone in my journey was the startup project, on innovative solution for tumour cell treatment using nutrition-implemented magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). This significant research project, a collaborative effort with my dear friends Asif Razzaq, Deepak Patel, and Intezar Ahmad Siddiqui, and under the guidance of our mentor, Dr Sajid Khan, gained recognition from the Association of Biotechnology Led Enterprises (ABLE) and the Department of Biotechnology, Government of India in 2011. The accolade reinforced my faith in innovation’s power to effect positive change.
My collaborations with numerous educational institutions to organize science events, international conferences, and seminars provided a platform for youth to express their creativity and innovation. This engagement brought me close to thousands of youth, and I was fortunate to travel across India with them on various educational tours. The experience not only widened my perspectives but also deepened my commitment to fostering the next generation of innovators and leaders.
The Covid-19 pandemic marked a significant chapter in my personal and professional journey. It was a period of intense struggle, with the loss of my mother being the most challenging ordeal. My faith in Allah SWT was my beacon during these dark times, guiding me to continue my mission of helping others realize their potential.
In 2022, I co-founded Rasmal, a testament to my ongoing commitment to entrepreneurship and positive social impact. This venture, like others before it, embodies my passion for creating value, driving change, and fostering continuous learning.
In every phase of my journey, the guiding principle has been to create a positive impact, make a difference, and learn ceaselessly. Each day offers a thrilling adventure filled with knowledge and opportunities to grow. It’s a journey I am incredibly grateful for, and the excitement of what lies ahead never ceases to inspire.
As we traverse this path together, I invite you to delve deeper into my professional experiences, including entrepreneurship, education, and beyond. Let’s continue this journey of exploration in the next section.
