My work on the startup and technology ecosystem of Pakistan has been featured in TechJuice and Dawn. I have worked as a freelancer for over five years, starting in my sophomore year and later shifting full time. My freelance portfolio ranges from design and web to content creation.

I've learned a lot from this course although it took time for me to finish it because there is so much information presented in this course. Asra has a talent for teaching. She gives a very detailed explanation of all the topics and will show you the step by step procedure to make sure you understand everything. Thanks and more power to you!

As a starter without having much knowledge, it was very difficult for me to completely grasp the idea of how these freelancing platforms work and what is the right way for starting a freelancing career. This course has given me a lot of knowledge and confidence that i have started freelancing on fiverr a month ago and it is actually going pretty good, and yeah i also earned $15 too. 😃

Great course. Easy to understand, perfect pace and fun to learn! I loved how the instructor gives examples at times showing the mistakes beginners usually do, cause I think I would've made them myself.
