I feel lucky to have been taught by high calibre faculty at the DDM. Seminars, workshops, competitions, exhibitions, and conferences were brought into our learning environment and helped us interact with the industry, the academia, and the society. In collaboration with my teachers we established the “Design Society” which provides a platform for design students to interact with each other, plan activities, participate in local and international competitions; the success was overwhelming! On completion of my course I worked for large commissioned projects for the “International Short Film Festival”, the “Cyprus Sports Organisation”, and the “Cyprus Theatre Organisation”. After I returned to my homeland, I lead the team that designed and developed the “Pakistan Elections 2013” website for the largest business newsgroup in Pakistan, “Business Recorder”. At the DDM we learned to be not just creative but also innovative and this is what I’ll keep on doing here in Pakistan.
