My advice to all aspiring professionals is to embrace new challenges, stay determined in your goals, continuously update your plans, and remain consistent in the pursuit of your dreams. Success is a journey, not a destination.

My educational journey began at Iqra Huffaz Secondary School, followed by Government Islamia College Civil Lines, Lahore, for intermediate studies. The pursuit of knowledge led me to Lahore Garrison University, where I earned a Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering in 2021. My educational path has been a journey of constant growth and learning. Alongside my studies, I've discovered a passion for various hobbies such as gaming, engaging in games like snooker and foosball, and finding freedom on two wheels through cycling. I find joy in hanging out with friends, exploring new cuisines, and discovering new places. 🚀

I began as a CMS developer, navigating the intricate world of website creation. Transitioning from development to management was a pivotal juncture, as a Project Manager plays a crucial role in the entire project lifecycle. While developers breathe life into projects, it's not solely about the code; it's about creating a roadmap, ensuring seamless collaboration, and delivering exceptional results. It dawned on me that managers craft the roadmap, turning client dreams into reality. I made the switch because project managers witness the sheer joy on a client's face when their vision becomes tangible.

The joy of seeing a client's satisfaction is unparalleled. 💼Oh, and a funny reason for transitioning? Well, spending too many years in development might have led to an unwanted balding situation—I didn't want to exhaust my brainpower that much! LOLIn the next five years, I envision myself as someone continually evolving in the tech realm, perhaps leading innovative projects or contributing to groundbreaking solutions. The specifics might be hazy, but the drive to make a meaningful impact in the tech landscape is crystal clear. I aspire to contribute significantly to my organization's success, fostering innovation, and leading teams toward excellence.

The year 2023 marked the beginning of my journey with Emerald Labs. My voyage at Emerald Labs has been a revelation. Learning new procedures, embracing challenges, and being part of a supportive team have been invigorating. The company culture, and forward-thinking upper management, have created an environment conducive to both professional and personal growth. ✨
