A decade of campaigns that travel across cultures and platforms. From Radio Genie on FM91 to Executive Creative Director at Zong - I build the strategy, write the story, and stay in the room until the work ships.

Fifteen years, told in four chapters.

One career, four very different rooms - the studio mic, the agency floor, the platform war-room, the boardroom. Each one bled into the next.

On Air.

The mic taught me how an audience breathes.

Twelve years on FM91 as Radio Genie. A daily show, 75+ live events, and a TV stint on Dawn News' Spyder. The instinct for what people lean into started here - in real time, with no edit pass.

Ogilvy for Nestlé across the region. Grey Density for Lays, Kurkure, Cheetos and Mountain Dew. The years that taught me the craft of building campaigns big brands actually run - and shooting straight with the room.

03The Long Version

A creative operator built between the studio, the boardroom and the mic.

I started on FM91 as Radio Genie in 2011 - twelve years holding a daily mic taught me how an audience actually breathes. That instinct travelled into agency life at Ogilvy, leading digital content for Nestlé across the region, and into the campaign work that followed at Grey Density for Lays, Kurkure, Cheetos and Mountain Dew.

Platform years next: OLX Group as Social & Content Head, then Snack Video / Kuaishou as Content Operations Head - building Pakistan's largest short-form creator ecosystem from zero. From there a growth detour with Tutorly.ai in the Bay Area, proving TikTok could become a primary acquisition channel for an edtech product.

Back home I stepped into senior creative leadership: Creative Director on Jazz Business at Fishbowl, GM Creative Marketing & Strategy at Lake City Holdings, then Executive Creative Director - Zong CMPak at Conglo, running 360° campaigns for one of Pakistan's largest telecom brands. Today I'm Creative Partner at Add Hype and consult across SABCON, MDIF and Ticket Wala - turning culture, data and craft into work that ships.

Twelve years as Radio Genie.

From 2011 to 2023 I held a mic on FM91 Pakistan - mixing humour, music and stories into a daily show that became Radio Genie.

Along the way: interviews with global icons including Ron "Bumblefoot" Thal, and 75+ events hosted live - from mall activations to Coke Fest. The instinct for what an audience will lean into started here.

That same ear shows up in the work today: as a TV presenter for Spyder on Dawn News, as the voice behind fb.com/imanazmat, and in every script I sign off on as a Creative Director.
