Early life

Zaid was born and raised in Dehradun, but he also stayed in Delhi during his early life. He had an entrepreneurial spirit since childhood, but his parents wanted him to be a doctor, so he took the science stream in high school. During his high school years, he was a NEET aspirant who spent his entire day coaching and attending school.

Though his life was on a completely different track during that time, he did not leave his passion for tech and creativity. Initially, Zaid’s parents were not supportive of his plans. He felt family pressure to become a doctor as his family had a pro-medical background; almost everyone in his family was a doctor, including his father and cousins.

But destiny had some other plans for him. His parents somewhere understood his passion for creative space and entrepreneurship. Just two weeks before his medical exam, his father discussed with him that if he wanted to pursue his dream, he could, and he enrolled him in the Journalism and Mass Communication program.

This marked a watershed moment in his life, and he never looked back. Though he cleared his medical exam and could have been a doctor today, he chose his passion and became a successful entrepreneur.

His College and Career

Zaid graduated from high school in 2019 and enrolled in college. He began working toward his goal during his first year of college. During his first semester, he started his work in the field of digital marketing, where he worked with two clients from the USA and got his first income. Zaid earned $1,800 (INR 125,000) from his first ever freelance job.

A first-year college student has a thousand ways to spend his money, but as a budding entrepreneur, Zaid invested his money in his dream productively and bought an advanced camera and studio lights.

He worked with them for six months, and from here, along with his creativity, he also developed marketing skills.

After that, he got an opportunity to work with a Maharashtra-based educational institution. For that, he went to Maharashtra and lived there for two months. While working on many projects there, he earned a good amount of money. Then he formed a production team and started his own company, “Infinite Entertainment.”

His dreams began to take flight from this point forward. During his second year of college, he freelanced as much as he could and earned money.

After that, in 2020, Zaid made both of the lockdowns very productive for him. During the first lockdown, he freelanced and upgraded his working setup. And during the second lockdown, he went to Dubai for his work.

In Dubai, he worked for “bnbme holiday homes,” one of the city’s leading vacations rental companies.

After working there, he came back to India. After coming back, he began his hustle here. He worked with his marketing and advertising clients and started working on establishing his marketing agency; along with that, he also worked in the field of real estate.
