Raza was a great professional to work with and also a great mentor. I struggled a lot during my career transition (from CS role to Business Development) but because of his solid support we were able to grow Betadine brand in different E-Commerce platforms and achieve more than 700% growth in GMV. In this experience, I started to embrace e-commerce industry and it also helped me land to a great career which currently I enjoy working in. Thank you so much Raza for all your help and I will always look back to my great experience working with you.

Raza was part of the Singapore/Malaysia Consumer Health business when I was the Global Head of Consumer Healthcare at Mundipharma. I was very impressed by his ability to deliver strong marketing campaigns under tight deadlines and with limited budgets. I found him to be extremely hard-working, diligent and most importantly, a very nice person. I would highly recommend him to any organisation that needs a strong marketer.
