He has been a featured speaker at events in Australia, Brazil, Croatia, Egypt, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, Oman, United Kingdom, United Arab Emirates, and across the US, Canada, and Caribbean.

Prior to his distinguished consulting career, Fareed spent fifteen years as a professional magician performing on cruise ships, in casinos, and at private clubs such as the famed Magic Castle in Hollywood, California. He also served six years in the US Marine Corps.
