Tamim puts in countless hours to ensure his content is top-notch, showing that good things come to those who hustle.
“People expect high quality these days,” he said. “They don’t want to watch low-quality videos. I started late compared to other content creators, so I knew I had to start strong and post consistently.”

“I love seeing people try my recipes and tell me how much they enjoyed them,” Tamim said. “It’s the best reward.”
