A snapshot of what I've built, shipped, and accomplished -- across Shopify development, finance, and academics. Everything here is real work, not certificates.
Development & Agency
Founded Creatify -- Shopify Freelance Agency
Built and launched Creatify from scratch while still a university student -- a Shopify-focused freelance agency delivering custom theme development, landing pages, and end-to-end store builds for clients in Pakistan and internationally. Running as founder and lead developer since day one.
Delivered Shopify Stores for International Brands
Built and customized production-level Shopify storefronts for international clients -- including Maje.ae (luxury Parisian womenswear, UAE market), Rhode Skin (Hailey Bieber's DTC beauty brand, USA), and Caliphe Clothing (Pakistani activewear). Handled everything from Liquid development to conversion rate optimization -- competing with agencies while operating solo.
Self-Taught Shopify Developer -- Zero to International Clients
No bootcamp, no formal course. Taught myself Shopify Liquid, Dawn theme architecture, section schema, and CRO techniques entirely through documentation, real projects, and iteration. Went from zero knowledge to building production storefronts for international fashion and beauty brands -- all within a single year.
Published Technical Guides on Shopify & SEO
Written and published in-depth technical tutorials covering Shopify development (custom sections, price sliders, abandon cart, social embeds, collaborative access), SEO strategy, HTML5, Excel, and automation with N8N -- helping developers and store owners solve real problems. Read all articles →
Finance & Analytics
AFA -- Affiliate Financial Accountant
Started the CMA (Certified Management Accountant) journey in 2023. After completing 12 papers, officially earned the AFA (Affiliate Financial Accountant) designation -- a recognized professional accounting credential. Now 17 papers completed and actively continuing toward full CMA certification. Program covers financial planning, performance management, cost accounting, internal controls, and professional ethics.
Built Finance Tools -- Publicly Available on GitHub
Developed a suite of financial tools from scratch and open-sourced them: a Finance KPIs Dashboard (Power BI + Excel), a Budget & Forecasting Model with scenario analysis, a Sales Performance Analytics Dashboard, and a Small Business Bookkeeping System. All designed for real business use, not academic exercises.
Financial Modeling & Business Intelligence
Built financial models used by small businesses for planning and decision-making -- including revenue forecasting, scenario analysis, expense tracking, and cash flow management. Applied Power BI for real-time KPI dashboards that turn raw financial data into actionable business insight.
Academic & Professional Development
BS Accounting & Finance -- Bahauddin Zakariya University
Currently enrolled in a Bachelor's degree in Accounting & Finance at BZU Multan -- one of Pakistan's leading public universities. Balancing a full-time freelance agency and active client work alongside academic studies. Core coursework covers financial accounting, cost accounting, auditing, taxation, and business law.
Running a Business While Studying -- Full Stack Responsibility
Managing Creatify (client acquisition, project delivery, invoicing, and bookkeeping) while maintaining active university enrollment -- applying accounting knowledge directly to real freelance operations. Managing my own books using the same financial tools I build for clients: real-world practice, not simulations.
