Shabi Asghar

Born in Pakistan and now calling Laguna Hills, California home, Shabi Asghar leads Brokers First Funding with passion, integrity, and a deep genuine care for the people around him. As President, Shabi oversees the full production engine of the company — Sales, Operations, and Marketing — driving the vision, the culture, and the results that define what BFF is and where it's going. What Shabi values most about his work isn't the title or the strategy — it's the people. The team he has built and the relationships he has forged are what make coming to work every day meaningful. That people-first philosophy runs through everything he does and sets the tone for the entire organization. Here's something that speaks volumes about who Shabi is at his core — he was a Golden Gloves Boxer who competed in the Summer Olympics. The discipline, mental toughness, and relentless drive that boxing demands at that level don't just stay in the ring. They shape a leader, and you can see it in how Shabi operates — focused, composed, and never willing to quit. He carries a quote from William Shakespeare that reflects his outlook on leadership and life: "There is no good or bad, only thoughts make it so." It's a reminder that perspective is everything — that how we frame our circumstances determines how we respond to them, and that mindset is always a choice. Outside of the office, Shabi stays active on the golf course and the basketball court, and feeds his love of exploration through travel. At home, he shares his world with Aaron, his dog, who is clearly in very good company. Passionate, integrity-driven, and compassionate — Shabi Asghar is the kind of president who leads from the front, lifts people up, and builds companies worth being a part of.
