“Fahd brought an electric energy to our Passion to Purpose Leadership Forum! His natural delivery pulled in the audience to feel apart of his presentation. His story was both relatable and inspiring to all the young people in the room! After 2-years of sitting behind a screen, Fahd reminded us how impactful being in-person is. Both his keynote and workshops were extremely interactive – physically and mentally. He posed thought-provoking questions that challenged participants to think about a gap in the community they are looking to support. He designed his keynote and workshops to be extremely organic and each built upon one another. Many participants have shared how Fahd’s keynote and workshops helped them see how they have the power to create a positive impact in their community and take an idea and make it a reality.
