About

I’m a Digital Marketing Specialist with hands-on expertise in PPC, SEO, and multi-channel paid media across Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, and Snapchat for high-volume FMCG brands. I’ve led Nestlé Pakistan campaigns that earned a Gold Effie in 2024, delivering 28% sales growth and 127M+ impressions—backed by a strong track record in performance analytics, KPI reporting, and brand-building across FMCG.

I thrive in cross-functional teams across marketing, creative, finance, and legal to maintain efficient workflows. I translate data into clear strategic recommendations for the next campaign cycle and coordinate across influencer, PR, social, and performance channels. I also leverage AI tools to accelerate content drafting and surface insights that drive brand growth.

Meta Lead Generation to collect potential customers and future prospects. Turning general leads into MQL with point-scoring and CRM techniques. Overhanding the MQLs and assisting Sales to convert them in SQL and buyers.
Optimizing audience, location and other aspects for making data-driven decisions to ensure quality leads in the future.

Fitness is about empowerment, pushing limits, and blending performance with style. Inspired by Gymshark and AYBL, I set out to explore an athleisure brand that promotes confidence, inclusivity, and performance. The focus was to understand the fitness communities, leveraging strategic social media, and collaborating with influencers to make high-quality activewear both accessible and stylish for everyone.
