I am a student studying Computer Sciences from Lahore University of Management Sciences. I hated writing but had interest in technology and related stuff long time ago. Until i found Cashif 'The Guy' who inspired me a lot, i didn't start writing. Now i find myself in a good firm and position and also find writing as interesting as anything and want to get my hands over more iOS devices in the future.
