When he was 19, speaker Nuseir ‘Nas Daily’ Yassin applied to Harvard University with the intent of obtaining an aerospace engineering degree. His application was accompanied by an essay that described the struggles he, as an Arab born in Israel, was going through in order to achieve his goals.
In 2014, he obtained a degree in economics, as well as a minor in computer science. While studying for his degree, Nuseir became the co-founder of a social media search engine, as well as a pay-it-forward registration service.
Nuseir Yassin worked in New York as a software developer for Venmo, a PayPal-owned mobile payment service.
When he was 26, Nas quit his job to explore the world and become an online storyteller. His goal was to capture every moment of his travels and share the experience with his viewers. He did this by purchasing a drone and an expensive camera, promising himself to get better at storytelling each day.
Nas set up a schedule with the intention of producing 1-minute long videos each day. The purpose of these videos was to involve viewers in Nuseir’s explorations of places and cultures. After posting 1000 videos in total, Nas gained around 12 million followers. At that point, his videos had 4 billion views. Although most of Yassin’s content was produced with the intent of being fun and light, his content did have a lot of positive social impact.
In 2020, Nuseir founded Nas Academy, to provide education for video creators. He also created Nas Studios for video production. During the same year, he released many podcasts. In 2021, Nas Academy raised $11M, which will help the company grow further.
