As the boys occasionally showed signs of magic, their parents kept them out of muggle school; Kamran and his brother were educated at home by their father in various wizarding and muggle subjects. He discovered a natural talent for flying early on, and was encouraged by his mother to build on this. He started competing in races in the year leading up to his first term at Hogwarts. While at school, he opted not to try out for Quidditch, and focused instead on his goal of becoming a professional broom racer.
After progressing through the Under-14 and Under-17 levels, Kamran entered the professional racing circuit immediately after graduating from Hogwarts, racing as an independent competitor for the first three years. He represented England in numerous races all over the world between the ages of 21 and 31, and achieved great success and renown in the sporting world. When he was 31, however, and at the height of his career, Kamran suddenly put everything on hold to take custody of his niece and nephews, who had been left without a suitable guardian after their father left the family and their mother became unwell. As the children were deeply unsettled by the upheaval, and unlikely to be able to return to their mother any time soon, Kamran later decided to quit racing entirely (if a little reluctantly) and focus on his family. The children had been living in Halifax, Nova Scotia, so Kamran moved overseas to Canada so as not to cause more disruption, and so that they could continue to see their mother. After five years, their mother officially relinquished parental rights and Kamran was granted full parental responsibility.
Though he wasn't racing, for the first few years after moving Kamran occasionally did work for a Wireless Wizarding Network station in Canada, as a commentator and pundit for broom racing events. Occasionally he did some publicity, but the earnings from his racing fame days were what kept his family financially stable. When Kamran was 35, and the children were all settled in their respective schools, he went back into full-time work, first as a conditioning coach, before making the switch to flying instructor. He started by teaching beginners classes aimed at ages 5 to 8, but soon realised he found such large groups of small hyperactive children near intolerable. After re-evaluating, Kamran took up a job teaching flying to kids aged 12 to 17 at a youth outreach program which ran year-round in Saskatchewan, becoming a live-in mentor during term time once his youngest nephew was old enough to attend Ilvermorny.
After just shy of ten years in this job, Kamran resigned and moved back to England, accompanying his youngest nephew, a then nineteen-year-old boy of a particularly sensitive and anxious disposition who had been accepted to the University of Cambridge, but who was not remotely ready to move overseas alone. The idea was that Kamran would stay with him in their new house until he was settled, and then move elsewhere within the country. Not long after arriving, Kamran was made aware of the vacancy of Flying Instructor at Hogwarts and applied while he had the chance, undeterred by his knowledge of the recent trials and tribulations up at the school. After getting the job and reassuring (and being reassured by) his nephew that the boy would be okay on his own come the end of the summer, everything was set in motion, and Kamran began making arrangements for teaching at Hogwarts that September.
After a year in the post of Flying Instructor, Kamran also took on the position of Groundskeeper. When the Headmaster at the time, Malachi Trent, resigned at the end of Kamran's second year teaching, Kamran was offered the role of Headmaster. He accepted, relinquishing his Flying and Groundskeeper roles, and became Hogwarts Headmaster in 2106.
