Viral Video Creator - Mindvalley
A great meme communicator.
Detailed: Content creator from Pakistan who’s producing viral videos in Malaysia for Mindvalley and this is my journey so far. Bullied and unbothered, at 15,I took my backpack and went on an exchange program to live with a host family. This active decision was the curving point of my life.
I chose to be an active global citizen. I started to volunteer at an elderly house, homeless shelters while maintaining a 4.0GPA, starring in a charity driven MULAN, the musical. As a result, I ended up gaining a Community Service Certificate by the then United States President Barack Obama.
For the following years, I have lived in 4 countries, 3 continents as I worked as a social entrepreneur. I led 25 workshops/conferences/seminars on personal development for the underprivileged, mentored 5000 students globally, led 36 community projects to eradicate hunger/poverty and impart quality education and worked with multiple organisations. During all of this, I kept running my business of photography/Cinematography which I started at the age of 16.
I started working as a Radio host for a show, pushed boundaries and At 19, I really wanted to use my video production skills to eradicate stereotypes. I started a series called “NotOriginals”where I wrote, produced, edited a total of 25 videos which eradicated stereotypes while having a light humor quality to it. The series had zero budget and was watched organically by 100,000 people.
In 2017, I took a job as the creative manager / program director for a UK based organization called World Merit. As the creative manager,I managed the social media team; we smashed our targets, doubled the numbers. I also worked as their director for the program called Team2030 which ended up impacting over 65,000 people globally in 2018.
Right after graduation with a 3.79 CGPA in Communications,in 2019, I started working as the Video Content Producer for Mindvalley. In a year, I have managed to bring over 15Million views across all social media platforms with the content I have produced and edited while managing 7 major launches, 2 mini campaigns which included LGBT Pride campaign which got us 31% sales raise because of the content pushed and produced by yours truly. Lastly, produced viral videos in coordination with brands such as goalcast, Jay Shetty etc.
