Outside work?
Scientists say when the apocalypse comes, only two things will survive: Cockroaches and my love for memes.
I am an extrovert who is 4 at heart but 40 in mind. Despite being a major tech geek, a sucker for anime, and a gamer by heart, what I enjoy the most in my free time is mentoring. I have varied interests so there is no typical weekend. At times I volunteer, other times I choose to travel. Anything that helps me explore.
— ADPList is a global community of Mentors and Learners - that has grown to 13,000+ Mentors who have mentored more than 10 million minutes in about 141 countries across the globe —
I volunteered at ADPList as Venture Initiative Ambassador in the early days of the platform and was one of the only two Pakistanis to represent Pakistan on the ADPList team.
I organized and co-hosted the first-ever Pakistan-based ADPList design session in collaboration with Hussain Dewani from Decathlon - Hong Kong. The local industry design leaders educated the participants about different aspects of UX design.
Startups & stories
My love for digital products and entrepreneurship led me to the initiation of multiple ventures during my years as a Student at UCP (The University of Central Punjab). All of them were a tale to be told and heartfelt experiences full of learning and memories that I cherish to date. Below are 2 of the most prominent ones to give you an idea.
— An online platform that offers comprehensive and up-to-date information, guides, and news about laptops —
Being passionate about solving a certain problem, I led a team of two friends to become part of the 4th cohort of Takhleeq. Here's a small introductory video from the good old days. We all wore multiple hats, with me taking up the responsibilities as a Product Manager, Product Designer, and SEO Analyst.
We spent 6 months grinding, learning, networking, and learning (yes again, since there was a lot of it, especially from our own mistakes). What became of the LapTerra? Are all 3 of us still friends or did it end up in a dispute? Okay no, I'm just kidding. Well, let's have a conversation and I'll share with you the complete tale of Adventures of Lapterra (okay I'll stop now).
— A blog uniting tech enthusiasts, hardcore gamers, and entertainment geeks on a single platform —
Divulgy, still close to my heart, was co-founded with a close friend and we ran the blog for about a year and a half. We got our monetization license from Google AdSense in JUST 3 DAYS after applying, something that's usually unheard of. Wanna hear how we did that or why we came up with the name 'Divulgy'? Let's chatter over a coffee 
(I'll take tea though. Not a coffee enthusiast, yet).
Learning & stuff
The learning never stops. There's a high chance I'm still reading through a blog or another online course by the time you're reading this.
Back in the days
— UCP's first student body with an international impact —
During University, I led teams of up to +60 students in various clubs and societies like ICC-UCPMUN, TEC (The Entrepreneurship Club), and TEDxUCP, etc. I was one of the founding members of ICC-UCPMUN and rose to the rank of Vice President by the time I graduated. Over the first four editions of UCPMUN, we've welcomed +1k Delegates and Chairs from around the world including countries like USA, Germany, Jordan, Türkiye, Egypt, Romania, Netherlands, and Pakistan.
