"Talent is Everywhere.
Opportunity & Practical Training Are Not."
Throughout my professional journey in mainstream media, I have had the opportunity to work in broadcasting, journalism, interviewing, and television presentation. Along the way, I discovered that many young people have the ambition to enter the media industry but lack access to the practical training and professional guidance needed to turn that ambition into a career.
That realisation inspired me to establish a media school at the University of Engineering and Technology Lahore, equipped with studio facilities and production equipment to give young media aspirants practical exposure. The objective was simple: to move beyond classroom learning and allow students to experience how media content is created.
Mainstream Broadcasting
Over 15 years leading prime-time current affairs programs, breaking-news anchors desks, and interviewing heads of state, diplomats, and industry leaders.
Studio-Based Pedagogy
Pioneered studio-based training at UET Lahore, equipping students with real teleprompters, broadcast lighting, and digital newsroom workflows.
Verified Placements
Mentored dozens of aspiring media professionals who advanced to become anchors, producers, reporters, and digital editors across Pakistan's leading news networks.
A Letter to the Next Generation
Today, through RTS Academy, my vision is to create a contemporary learning platform where aspiring journalists, broadcasters, podcasters, digital creators, and communication professionals can develop the skills demanded by today’s rapidly evolving media landscape.
RTS Academy will combine structured online learning with practical assignments, professional feedback, and opportunities for personal interaction. Students will learn not only how to present, report, interview, produce, and communicate, but also how to think critically, work ethically, and adapt to changing technologies like AI.
My ambition is to help develop a generation of media professionals who are skilled, confident, responsible, and prepared for the future.
Welcome to RTS Academy. The next generation starts here.
