Role Business Person
Describe yourself
I am a first year Kellogg Student (2Y Program) and am interested in all things that spread smiles.
"Entrepreneurs are those who can persevere and endure to bring their passion to life" - My grandfather was a man who built his business after his entire family and property were uprooted twice in his lifetime, during the South Asian partition. He taught me that to find a genuine problem and help solve that problem and continuously improve on that solution is the key to success. With Q-laborate, I want to do just that.
I grew up in Abu dhabi in the UAE and later moved to Toronto, Canada. During my study abroad year at the London School of Economics, I founded my first startup- myjunk.co.uk. This business was a student exchange site that allowed students to sell products to new students, providing storage between semesters.
I graduated from Georgetown in 2009, and turned down several bulge-bracket investment banking offers to work at KPMG Corporate Finance- a middle market investment bank where I worked directly with entrepreneurs and family businesses. The passion and emotions that accompanied any transaction I worked on continued to encourage me to pursue my own passion as an entrepreneur.
