Working with clients in the retail, healthcare, financial and CPG sector, Azher originally started out as a Creative Designer and brings a good mix of creative thinking and usability to traditionally cut-and-dry technical approaches.

Azher is an online community enthusiast and possesses deep knowledge and experience in building social networking applications such as blogs, discussion forums, wikis and online collaboration engines -- applications that play a key role in online and guerilla marketing.
