The Mission: Create One Million Jobs
For a long time, I've had this dream of making a real impact on other people's lives. It took some time before I realized what that could be. It became crystal clear when I realized that I could help people get jobs by teaching others what I do best, Digital Marketing.
Now, I have the opportunity to make my dream a reality by training others and helping them get jobs, jobs that have the potential to change lives.
So, that's my mission, to create a million jobs for other people. It started in Pakistan and now, it's South Africa's turn.
Next, the world!
