Creating from Pakistan. Learning through real work.

I've spent years making websites, editing videos, designing content and delivering work for businesses. Today, I co-build AI products with my brother—and help beginners take their own first step.

Client briefs, revisions, experiments and startup building shape how I teach.

Startup co-founder and instructor

The path wasn't a straight line

Curiosity became
practice.
Practice became
real work.

I started exploring digital skills early. Some became useful services. Some business models were harder than they looked online. Each attempt gave me a better understanding of what it takes to deliver.

Education, alongside experience.

I completed my O Levels and A Levels. Alongside my studies, I kept learning through projects, client work and business experiments.

A few moments along the way.

People, projects, progress
  1. 01 / Start early, try things

    Thirteen different paths before 18.

    Web development, editing, marketing, design, SEO, online selling and business services. I explored them from Pakistan and learned that the reality often differs from the tutorial.

  2. 02 / Turn skills into delivery

    Learn what clients actually need.

    Through our digital services work, including Kaihan Tech, I worked across websites, video edits, advertising and graphics. Briefs, deadlines and revisions made the work better—and taught me to explain my decisions.

  3. 03 / Understand the business side

    Go beyond making things look good.

    Our work through Kaihan Startup included US and UK company registration services. E-commerce experiments taught me about platform restrictions, account risk and inconsistent sales. The useful lesson: understand the whole process.

  4. 04 / Build something that keeps improving

    Co-build AxonWhale and AxonEstate.

    With my brother, Muhammad Ali, and our team, I moved into building AI products for real estate. Talking to users, shipping products and learning from outcomes now sit at the centre of our work.

  5. 05 / Take the work onto a bigger stage

    A national win. A milestone for our team.

    Our Indus AI Week AI Wrapper Competition win came with a PKR 1,000,000 prize. Together with Startup World Cup Pakistan finalist recognition and NIC Islamabad incubation, it marked progress for the company we were building.

  6. 06 / Bring the lessons forward

    Make the first step clearer for others.

    ARISE Pakistan brings that experience into a guided starting point: learn the basics, create useful work, get feedback and choose where to go next.

The work behind the lessons

Different skills.
One useful question:
does it work?

My experience spans the full creative process: making something clear, making it look good, and making it useful to the business asking for it.

Websites that make sense.

Building pages, organising information and refining layouts for real businesses. Experience with SEO helps connect design to how people find and use a website.

Web developmentUI & layoutSEO

Videos with a purpose.

Editing clips, shaping a story and creating advertising content. Pacing, sound, captions and revisions matter just as much as the software.

Video editingAdvertisingDigital marketing

Design that communicates.

Canva, graphics, social content and promotional designs. Bringing a message into focus through typography, colour and composition.

CanvaGraphic designSocial content

Skill illustrations above. See published work and project examples in my Instagram work highlight.

And beyond the creative work:

AI automation, startup building, e-commerce experiments, and US/UK business registration services. These experiences help me connect a skill to how it gets used.

There's more behind the work. Explore my profile and highlights at the top.

Experience includes the difficult parts

Some things worked.
Some taught me
what to avoid.

I rated the skills and business models I'd actually tried in a LinkedIn carousel. The scores reflect my own experience from Pakistan, including the parts that rarely make it into an online success story.

Explore a few honest lessons

Clients paid for useful work.

Video editing, marketing and web development brought client work—and taught me delivery, revisions and business needs. Company registration was less flashy, but clients valued the complicated work being handled properly.

Shared work.

Proper credit.

I co-founded AxonWhale and AxonEstate with my brother, Muhammad Ali. We're building AI for real-estate conversations—helping teams learn from what happened and make better decisions with collective experience.

The awards, company progress and client delivery shown here reflect the work of both founders and our team. At ARISE, I bring my own hands-on experience into the classroom.

What this means for you

You won't just
watch me create.
You'll try it, too.

Experience is useful when it makes the next step clearer. In Builder, I break the work into manageable tasks and help you see what to improve.

See how Builder works
  1. 01

    See the process, step by step.

    Live demonstrations show how to move from an idea to a design, video or simple website, with the decisions explained along the way.

  2. 02

    Create something of your own.

    Practise the basics with a project connected to your interests. You can start from zero; we build the foundation as we go.

  3. 03

    Get feedback. Make it better.

    Use the student dashboard to access resources and submit assignments. Guidance helps you improve the layout, pacing, clarity or usability of your work.

  4. 04

    Leave with work—and a direction.

    Bring your strongest projects together into a beginner portfolio, and identify the skill you'd like to keep practising next.

Before your first class

A few fair
questions.

Can I learn from you if I'm an absolute beginner?

Yes. Builder is designed for people with no previous design, editing or coding experience. You'll need basic English reading, a smartphone, regular access to a laptop or PC, reliable internet and time to practise. The program is for ages 18 and above.

Does Builder cover all 13 skills and business models?

The 13 experiments explain my background. Builder covers AI foundations, Canva design, mobile video editing, AI cinematic video with Flow and Veo, basic motion graphics and a simple AI-assisted website. It's a four-week introduction focused on creating your first work.

What does learning with an instructor add?

A clear sequence, live explanations and feedback on the work you actually make. The aim is to help you understand the process, notice mistakes and repeat the basics independently.

Your next chapter can start small

I've tried a lot of paths.
