Born in Punjab, Pakistan in 1955, I lost my father at a young age and was raised by relatives. At 16, I joined the Pakistan Army for stability and completed high school while serving in an intelligence unit. In 1976, I moved to Libya, progressing from laborer to administrative officer with international companies. I earned a bachelor’s degree by correspondence and moved to the U.S. in 1984. Married in 1990, I’m now happily settled with my wife and three sons.
