About Me
Born in Pakistan — I moved every two years growing up. The UK at 11, Germany at 17 where I started my bachelor's, an exchange semester in Taiwan, and now New York. I've learned to adapt fast and thrive in unfamiliar environments.
I love building. Whether it's breaking a national powerlifting record at 17, publishing peer-reviewed research at 20, or raising venture capital at 24— I go all in. I sit at the intersection of product, tech, business, and data, and I'm at my best when I can operate across all of them.
Right now, I'm focused on the intersection of AI and business — where the most important technology of our generation meets real-world operators who can ship it. That's where I do my best work.
Let's talk.
Always open to interesting conversations — whether it's about AI, building products, or what's next.
