Owais was one of the best people I got in contact with when i Joined Clarus in 2007. Being a consultant at UBL(One of the largest banks of Pakistan), interaction was scarce yet, it was commendable. His feedback from the clients and peers had given him a high ranking in the consultancy team and an importance to his words. In my tenure with Owais at Clarus and till date, i found him to be a Professional, down to earth, awesome sense of humor and an Excellent excellent guy to work with - always there to help anyone in need. (Y)(Y) two thumbs up.

Owais is one of those guys who I have really enjoyed working with. Either its technical stuff, knowledge sharing, lunch, discussions what ever we shared a great time together. I think he went beyond the definition of consultant in implementing the solutions at UBL and was an example to be followed by the rest of his colleagues. Ah and yes without him I couldn't have fulfilled my Formula 1 lengthy discussion :) I am sure he will be missing me for that as well. Apart from that he is a nice person and most importantly a team man. Wish you best of luck mate in what ever you do.
