If we haven’t met before – Hi, my name’s Ali

I started making YouTube videos in 2017, while in my final year of medical school at Cambridge University.

I started off with 0 views, 0 subscribers and $0 in revenue. I knew absolutely nothing about filming, editing or publishing videos, but after watching hundreds of tutorials, I figured out the basics.

Growing the channel was a challenge at first.

I was working 50-60 hours a week in the hospital, commuting 2 hours a day, and trying to maintain my health and social life.

That didn’t leave a lot of time to do YouTube.

But I knew I wanted the freedom and flexibility that a profitable, sustainable YouTube channel could give me…

18 months later, my YouTube channel reached 100,000 subscribers and was making as much money as my full-time job working as a doctor.

Two years later, I hit 1 million subscribers, $1m in annual revenue, and finally made the decision to quit my day job.

Now, I’ve been a Part-Time YouTuber for nearly 6 years and my channel’s grown from zero to 4.3 million subscribers.

I genuinely look forward to Mondays, working with a team of amazing creatives, and doing what I love, with a lot of freedom, fun and flexibility. I get messages every day from people saying my videos have changed their lives. I’ve even written my first book, due to be published by Penguin later this year.

And I make more money in a single year than I would’ve made in two decades working as a doctor. 

I know, it’s absolutely mental.
