Unlike most people in their early twenties who seek the opportunity to work for a large corporation, 24-year-old Shazir Mucklai took advantage of his opportunities and created his own corporation. His entrepreneurial venture began at the age of 15 when he began writing for well-known media outlets such as Forbes and Yahoo! Finance. Over the years he has written over 1,500 articles. These impressive writing abilities benefited him later as well when he decided to publish his first book six years ago followed by an additional three.
Once Shazir graduated high school he began providing insight to startups. His superb business skills allowed him to scale these startups in the quickest and most efficient way possible. While in his freshman year in college he created a side business where he sold strategy guides for video games that were popular at the time. Throughout college, Shazir maintained a healthy amount of internships with large companies like Texas Instruments, American International Group, Fidelity Investments, Blackrock Asset Management, and Waterview Investment Bank. After graduating from The University of Texas at Dallas he continued gathering experience through his many business ventures before starting the Imperium Group.
The Imperium Group provides professional marketing or press services and has become one of the fastest-growing Publication Relations Firms. They have two offices based out of Los Angeles, California, and Dallas, Texas. Some examples of the services they provide are media strategy, crisis communications, marketing, press release distribution, SEO optimization, and much more. Shazir puts lots of time and care into making sure that the firm reflects his own superb work ethic in order to provide world-class service. Through his firm, Shazir has provided famous singers, TV Writers, Entrepreneurs, NFL players, WNBA players, and many others with exceptional results.
There are many reasons why Shazir has been able to create this much success at such a young age. The way that he continuously works towards his next business venture and always works his best to provide exceptional results is what has landed him his partnerships with large companies like HBO and BravoTV. In addition to his business accomplishments, he is also an advocate for Women in corporate America. He has fought for equality in the workplace as well as safe healthcare and quality 12-year education for women worldwide. It is clear that Shazir does not is not one to stay static and always works towards his next move. Most recently he became the founder and editor-in-chief at the popular media outlet, TheKerplunk. It seems there are no limits for Shazir, and considering that he has done all of this before reaching his mid twenties, I cannot begin to imagine what his future holds.
