her way or the high way. that is all there is to nafisa. she doesn't work too much but when she does, it happens because of a bout of inspiration. during these phases, nothing is stopping her: she gets impatient, she wants results immediately, she doesn't have the patience to wait for email responses, she finds the work ethic of everyone else lacking. it's the sort of behaviour that causes a horrid environment. it's the main reason she has decided to just stick to being on the board of visual x. she has opinions and she wants the best for the company but she is not a team player.

nafisa was a sharp kid, and her first ten years of schooling were a piece of cake. her study method relied heavily upon stress factors — last minute cramming and lots of all-nighters. the problem with having a good memory is that it allows you to grow into a backboneless adult. university was hell. last minute studying was not the answer. quick and easy fixes did not exist for every challenge. nafisa barely survived her five years at the university of edinburgh. she graduated with a fairly useless degree in digital arts. a degree that her upper-middle class parents paid for. a degree that led her to her future business partner.

a year before her graduation nafisa put all of her efforts into networking. networking for her meant going to the coolest events she could just get into, drinking champagne she could not afford, and talking to anyone who would listen to her youthful and naive thoughts. one warm august evening, she sat at the right table at the right time.

her future business partner was going over the work opportunity that had presented itself just some weeks ago. the issue ? there was no team to handle the work load. the word 'work' sounded awfully good to a poor, parent-dependent ( technically art ) student. nafisa jumped at the opportunity. convinced the other that she was what was missing and she was willing to put in hours.

the ad campaign they worked on was their first project together. it was what convinced them that they could keep going as a duo. as nafisa was finishing her studies, her business partner kept looking for new projects. after their fourth project together, a large project they couldn't handle together forced them to expand. they created visual x and hired a handful of people to work for them.

money breeds greed. the company kept growing in surges: the company would accept a project that was too big for their capacity at the time, they'd hire new people to complete the project, they'd realize the temps needed to become a permanent part of their employee list, and not much later the same pattern would be repeated. but growth cannot happen infinitely.

in 2023, after six fruitful years of growth and wealth, visual x had a dry season. no projects came up, their expertise was not needed, and the money stopped pouring in. they had their first massive lay-offs. nafisa had never experienced such great a failure and she felt absolutely gutted. she felt bad for the employees but mainly she felt like her luck had ran out and she was going to lose everything they had worked for. it took her two months to become properly functional again. during those two months app-h had begun to circle visual x like a vulture.

some would consider app-h the saviour. nafisa will begrudgingly admit that without app-h inc. there would not be the visual x that exists at the moment, but nafisa dislikes being dependent on app-h. under app-h, visual x never runs out of projects. dulaan is their main source of revenue.

nafisa feels like she and her co-founder are no longer in control despite the co-founder acting as the ceo and nafisa on the board of the company. they still have to answer to the big bosses of app-h inc.
