Interests / quote
A silver medalist in O Levels and a scholarship holder during A Levels, my peers have always associated me with a person having a quantitative mindset which has assisted me in evolving as an analytical and logical person. This set of strengths and skills took me to LUMS where I did my BSc. Hons. in Mathematics. In order to gain further professional experience, I started interning at a non-governmental organization where I was responsible for analyzing its projects. The analytical framework that was followed by the organization on the community and developmental projects developed my interest and made me pursue work in the same field. Hence, I joined Transparency International soon afterwards. Working at TI-Pakistan made me hone my abilities and what separated me from others was that I emerged as a person skilled at various core tasks including in depth analysis of projects and event management.
However, the scope of my career as a graduate was quite limited. Therefore, to open up to further possibilities, I pursued my MBA from IBA. I feel quite fortunate to be a part of both of the best institutes of Pakistan, because each of them exposed me to a new facet. IBA opened me up to the notion of what a business world is all about. Working side-by-side with some of the experienced professionals of the industry, while learning from them at the same time, I got to know a lot about the operations of the corporate world. My knowledge enhanced further while I interned at ICI and got a chance to taste competition and challenge at a professional level. The institute has kept me going and has made me believe in rising to the new heights. It has not only given me specialized knowledge of various fields but also an opportunity to widen my vision to look at things differently.
Equipped with an MBA degree, I want to embark on a professional journey where I can work on a managerial level and not only put my acquired knowledge to use but also to learn things that can only be enhanced through practical experience.
