Interests / quote
After completing my BBA from IBA in 2010, I began working as a Business Analyst for 3i Logic (Pvt.) Ltd. During this time, I was fortunate to enjoy a great deal of exposure in engaging with clients and developing Digital Media strategies suited to their needs. Within a short time span, I was given a managerial position at the company, which gave me the additional responsibility to lead a team. However, whilst this was a tremendously fulfilling and educational period, after two successful years it became apparent to me that if I wanted to continue challenging myself and benefit from a meaningful professional development, I needed to broaden my skill-set, deepen my knowledge and understanding further. This led me back to the familiar route of IBA.

After completing my BBA from IBA in 2010, I began working as a Business Analyst for 3i Logic (Pvt.) Ltd. During this time, I was fortunate to enjoy a great deal of exposure in engaging with clients and developing Digital Media strategies suited to their needs. Within a short time span, I was given a managerial position at the company, which gave me the additional responsibility to lead a team. However, whilst this was a tremendously fulfilling and educational period, after two successful years it became apparent to me that if I wanted to continue challenging myself and benefit from a meaningful professional development, I needed to broaden my skill-set, deepen my knowledge and understanding further. This led me back to the familiar route of IBA.

The MBA program has not only helped me to hone the soft skills required to be a good manager, but also allowed me to specialize further in the field of Marketing and broaden my perspective. Additionally, by attracting students from various industries and diverse backgrounds, the program gave me an opportunity to interact and work with different people and different ideas. During my program, I attended the Dubai Study Tour as part of a Marketing Management course, which allowed me to rub shoulders and learn from senior-level executives working in world-renowned organizations. Furthermore, the MBA Research Project, which required in-depth research and consultancy for a client, Princely Jets (Pvt.) Ltd., offered me the chance to apply my skills in a professional environment in a new and growing industry. In this project, I worked with a team of students and acquired first-hand knowledge about aviation, the safety culture of corporates and business development from one of Pakistan's leading conglomerates.

My earlier professional experience in the Digital Media Industry and my time at IBA has prepared me to deliver results in a fast-paced and competitive environment. I have also sharpened my analytical and critical thinking abilities. Thus, looking forward, I am eager to apply my education and experience from MBA, and work for an organization in which I can take on a strategic role and contribute to its success.

I have always believed that a successful career requires a combination of high quality education, meaningful professional experience and constant challenges. With two years of marketing experience and an MBA from IBA under my belt, I am raring to go once again.
