I grew up between the UAE and Pakistan, and my Baloch heritage, a tribal community from the region, has deeply shaped my sense of resilience and belonging. I found that same sense of belonging in sports, winning a national bronze medal in taekwondo at the age of 10 before shifting my focus to soccer, which I continue to follow passionately.
Before Fuqua, I earned my undergraduate degree in Business Administration from IBA Karachi and worked in the automobile and agri-tech sectors, focusing on go-to-market strategy and business development. At Fuqua, I serve on the cabinet of Muslims in Business, where I’ve enjoyed building community and creating space for meaningful connections.
Post-MBA, I’m excited to pursue go-to-market roles in tech. Outside of school, you’ll often find me spending time with my wife and our five-month-old daughter, Minha, watching soccer and Formula 1, playing video games, experimenting with linocut block printing, or trying out new recipes in the kitchen.
