Born and raised in Washington District of Columbia, he started his marketing, sales, and deliveries career at the age of ten, assisting his mother in her furniture shop.
He attended Sidwell Friends School and went on to attend business school at the University of Miami where he received a Bachelor of Business Administration in 2004.
He is the co-author of the book Effortless Entrepreneur and a frequent guest on Fox Business News and Microsoft and National Broadcasting Company speaking on the topics of business and entrepreneurship. Soliman is also the co-executive producer of the 2012 documentary Beware of Mr. Baker. Soliman founded College Hunks Hauling Junk with Nick Friedman in 2003 while they were attending college.
After working that summer with the business, he returned to the University of Miami for his senior year of college.
In 2004, he entered the Leigh Rothschild Entrepreneurship Competition in Miami, a competition that showcased the best business plan ideas. A short time later he partnered again with Friedman to revive College Hunks Hauling Junk: first in a 38 location franchise specializing in junk hauling under the name "College Hunks Hauling Junk", then moving furniture under the name "College Hunks Moving.
In 2009, Soliman appeared in an episode of Shark Tank to pitch an idea about a sister business to College Hunks Hauling Junk. The business idea was for college girls who could be hired to organize, pack, and unpack for people who were moving.
Soliman turned down the offer received from the Sharks as he and Friedman would have to turn over part control of the business.
Soliman was also the co-executive producer of the 2012 documentary Beware of Mr. Baker. In 2011, Soliman co-authored the book Effortless Entrepreneur with Nick Friedman and Daylle Schwatrz.
A year later after graduation, he went on to become a member of the advisory board of Marsh & McLenan, a healthcare research firm in Washington District of Columbia
