MSSM, 2027

This is how to say my name:

 

Why MSSM?

I chose the MSSM program because it is explicitly engineered for software product leaders operating at the intersection of technical execution, data analytics and business strategy. Coming from a computer science and an analytics background, I want to pair my data depth with the structured product management framework offered by the Integrated Innovation Institute. Furthermore, the program’s unique position within the Silicon Valley ecosystem and its experiential 16 month curriculum provides the ideal proving ground to step into product ownership, preparing me to scale impactful digital products in high stakes industries like fintech, amongst others.

Education

Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Habib University

Experience

Digital lending analytics for growth and customer success @ AdalFi. Prior experiences includes analytics for a market research consultancy, an ISP and an energy sector company.

What type of role are you looking to obtain after you graduate?

I intend to pursue a Product Management (PM) role immediately after graduation, specifically within fast-paced teams building new B2C or platform products from scratch.

Product management perfectly formalizes what naturally energizes me: sitting at the intersection of business, design, and engineering to connect cross-functional teams and create user value. By blending my business foundation with the technical grounding from CMU, I want to lead the execution of software that shapes everyday lives. Long-term, this role provides the essential training in software development and strategic thinking I need to eventually found my own transformative software ventures.
