Venture Founder
Abdullah was born in Karachi, Pakistan, migrated to the USA in the 80's, and settled in Monroe, Louisiana, where he attended High school. He earned his Business Administration degree at Louisiana Tech University, followed by a specialty certification in Gemology at the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) in Santa Monica, CA. He moved to Orlando in 1996 and made Orlando his home. Through his philanthropic and voluntary work, he saw the gap in basic technology for small to midsize non-profits for auctions and donations, thus, his vision was transformed to Tuesday, a nonprofit-focused auction donation app.
