BACKGROUND
I faced many challenges coming from Pakistan at an early age. I was tough settling in a new country and society without any family or friends. I learnt many skills and obtained many resources while going through these challenges. I want to help others so they don't have to face similar hardships.

PHILOSOPHY
Realize that when you get older, you either get senile or become gracious. There's no in-between. You become senile when you think the world short-changed you, or everybody wakes up to screw you. You become gracious when you realize that you have something the world needs, and people are happy to see you when you come into the room.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
