Summary

I independently ran an e-commerce store selling Multan mangoes from June to August. I managed all aspects of the business, from setting up the Shopify store to handling product listings and driving sales. I also ran targeted advertising campaigns on platforms like Meta, Facebook, and Instagram to reach a broader audience and boost sales.

Along with my e-commerce experience, I worked as a Virtual Assistant (VA) for TikTok Shop, where I managed e-commerce operations, optimized product listings, and executed ad campaigns. Additionally, I served as an IT Assistant, providing technical support to ensure smooth operations.

I hold a computer science degree and have hands-on experience in React Native mobile app development, which strengthens my foundation in software development and mobile application design.

My professional background also includes a role as a marketing executive in the real estate industry, where I developed marketing strategies, managed social media accounts, and analyzed market trends. I then transitioned to the consumer goods industry with PepsiCola as a Product Sales Representative (PSR), where I managed key accounts and ensured timely deliveries, gaining valuable skills in customer service, time management, and problem-solving.

Additionally, I have expertise in Civil Registration & Management Systems, specializing in the generation of vital documents such as birth, death, marriage, and divorce certificates
