I'm currently based in Budapest but grew up mainly in Lahore, Pakistan.

I have done my undergraduate from Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) in Lahore, Pakistan followed by a Master's in Public Policy (MPP) from the Central European University (CEU) in Budapest, Hungary.

It is always fun -- mostly fun, with occasional moments of reflecting back and sadness sometimes -- to visit the countryside and making new acquaintances. For my professional work, I have had a chance to travel across Pakistan. It has allowed me to build a strong professional network and friendships across Pakistan. In addition, it has helped me substantially improve my communication skills -- how to engage with people from a whole lot of diverse backgrounds.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Perhaps not a very fun thing, seemingly, but it is for we get to visit field-areas across Pakistan.... I have cofounded & been managing a surveys consulting firm in Pakistan: Data Consultants (http://dataconsultants.com.pk)

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Everyone is a teacher and a learner at the same time. We did the day we remove any of these roles from our lives...

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I come from a rural family of Pakistan and have gone to the best college in Pakistan. Having been to a very low profile rural school to the elitest college of Pakistan has allowed me to meet a whole lot of diverse people who make my current network. Based on this, I have so many stories to share with anyone I talk to.

At the same time, I am a very good listener and love to learn from other's experiences...
