The Digital Solutions Journey"


How I Started My Journey: The Beginnings of Digital Solutions

Starting from humble beginnings, my journey to building Digital Solutions has been one of growth, learning, and persistence. Let me take you through my story, beginning with my early professional life and the experiences that shaped me into the entrepreneur I am today.

From a Middle-Class Family to University Life 

I come from a middle-class family, with my father serving as a government employee. Despite living a comfortable life, I always aspired to achieve more. After completing my university education in 2014, I pursued a Diploma in Information Technology (DAE) from SBTE Karachi. With dreams of building a future in technology, I was ready to take on the world.

The Start of My Professional Journey

In 2014, as a young graduate, I had limited career options. With few opportunities in my field, I decided to step into the banking industry. My first job was at a microfinance bank as a Deposit Collector. I vividly remember my first day—nervous yet hopeful, stepping into a world I knew little about. The workplace, the people, and the professional environment were all new to me.

At that time, I was naïve, believing in the inherent goodness of everyone. I trusted easily, unaware of the complexities and challenges of the professional world. I was eager to learn and grow, but my journey wasn't without its struggles.

The Harsh Reality of Professional Life

One of the defining moments of my early career was when I had to pay a sum of 50,000 PKR to secure my first job in December 2017. It was a bitter pill to swallow, but I saw it as a stepping stone. My starting salary was 18,000 PKR per month—a modest amount, but it marked the beginning of my professional life.

This experience taught me a crucial lesson about the realities of the job market and the challenges of navigating professional life. It was a moment of reckoning, but it also ignited a fire in me to strive for something greater.

Building Resilience and Learning

During my time at the bank, I learned the importance of resilience, adaptability, and continuous learning. Every challenge became an opportunity to grow, and every setback a lesson for the future. I started to understand the professional landscape, gaining valuable insights into operations, client management, and financial systems.

The Vision for Digital Solutions

While my early career was rooted in banking, my passion for technology and entrepreneurship never faded. I began to dream of creating a business that would leverage my skills in IT, digital marketing, and virtual assistance. This vision eventually led to the birth of Digital Solutions, a company dedicated to providing top-notch digital services worldwide.

A Journey of Growth

From those early days as a naive young professional to becoming the founder of Digital Solutions, my journey has been anything but ordinary. Each step, whether small or significant, contributed to my growth and success. Today, Digital Solutions stands as a testament to perseverance, hard work, and the belief that no dream is too big.
