About ME

I work as a cloud infrastructure engineer at Microsoft☁️. I enjoy working on Microsoft’s infrastructure in the data centers as I’m faced with learning challenges very often.
One of my biggest achievement is becoming a Microsoft certified trainer for which I’ve invested several hours and efforts. I like teaching what I’ve learnt and how I can better and more effectively teach it. I teach through my YouTube channel and my own Virtual class.
I’m also a career development Ambassador, I like helping people that are in the same boat as me or need guidance. Being a career advisor, mentoring and coaching people is very rewarding. My goal is to see people reach their full potential.
I’m currently studying law (LLB) at Technological University Dublin and in my first year. I aspire to be like my Dad one day. I’m also studying towards my Azure certs to upskill myself.

The spare time I have I like to dedicate that to my interests and hobbies. I a member of more than 9 clubs and societies. I play sports for my local teams. I’ve played at county level cricket. I enjoy working on personal projects to name one I’m building a gaming PC which will run a few VMs, This concept follows Cloud gaming.

I’d love to hear from you, tell me your story or how may I help you. 

Life principles

My principles help me stay focused on what’s important they’re my golden rules, I broke them once and I hit rock bottom. Below are my core principles.

  • Help everyone even if they have wronged me
    It’s my superpower, I strongly believe where I am today is because I’m always helping people and Allah S.W.T (God) is rewarding.
  • ‘’Talent is like a candle, it will burn out one day’’ - Bilal Awan
    This took me a while to understand, I was very talented in a few aspects in life but when I met my own league I realised ‘’I need skill if I want to play better than them’’ -Most of my teachings come from sport.
  • The Golden rule – ‘’Treat others the way you would like to be treated’’
    Pretty straight forward but if you ever treat anyone unfairly just know it will come back to you.
  • ‘’If he can, so can I’’
    not to sound big headed or show that I have Ego, but this motivates me to do what may seem impossible to me.
    I like taking inspiration from others.
  • Every problem has a solution -
