About Me

Professionally - I am Financial advisor and have served organisations from entry level positions up to C-Level and Board.

Possess academic and professional qualifications in management, finance, accounting, banking and related fields. Also a certified coach, helping people achieve their true potential.

Public speaking and competitive speaking are my passion, having found success as a competitive speaker and as a mentor for aspiring public speakers. My exposure to public speaking has taught me one important lesson in good communication - to be good listener.

Am a firm believer in the maxim: "sound mind in a sound body". Have always been physically active, in individual and team sports. This, by the Grace of the Almighty, has helped me remain healthy.

Have been actively working towards achieving FIRE ("financial independence, retire early"). Al Hamdulillah - this is something my wife and I have achieved and are looking forward to an early retirement and to do things we have always wanted to do.

Personally, I am a simple human being, who has gone through different challenges in life. By the Grace of the Almighty, I have been able to successfully navigate my way through most of these challenges. Learnt a lot from this. I am willing and able to share these learning's with anyone who could benefit from them.
