Sa'ad is a Pakistani mountaineer who produces digital & broadcast media and delivers keynotes that are bound to inspire. Earlier last year he got featured on Mountain Dew Pakistan’s #DewStories campaign as a local hero. I am very excited to tell you that my first ever 5 episode adventure TV series - The Chashkin Challenge, went on air on Indus News in May & June 2019. Following the success of the first TV series my second second project for the channel - Into The Icefall has been going on air since November 2019. And in August 2020 my team and I attempted Rakhiot Peak 7,070m, which is part of the Nanga Parbet Massif. Discover Pakistan TV has bought the footage and are in a process to convert it into a documentary. Along with having written for several publications and having delivered 3 TEDx talks I have ample mountaineering experience, the highlights being:
