Russab Ali
Co-Founder/ CFO of SMC Digital Marketing
One half of the minds that make up SMC Digital Marketing, Russab is as entrepreneur at heart. Russab started “playing around” with the stock market at 11 years of age before moving into the Digital Marketing World at age 13. Russab has often been considered a young genius and has the accolades to back it up. He attended one of America’s Top 50 HighSchools before moving onto the prestigious New York University Stern School of Business due to its proximity to Wall St. It was at NYU that Russab discovered his true calling; After realizing he was the only student in his class paying full tuition through his (at the time) small Digital Marketing Firm, Russab decided to divert his attention from Banking and towards Marketing full time. He now spends most of his day planning and executing client strategy while handing the day-to-day financials of the firm. When he has some free time, Russab likes to hit the gym, follow the stock market, play some sports and relax with his family.
