Brief Bio

I am a dedicated Mechanical Engineer and Gold Medalist with strong academic achievements and practical industry experience in design, simulation, manufacturing, and advanced materials research. I completed my Master’s in Mechanical Engineering with a CGPA of 3.77/4 and earned distinction as a Gold Medalist.

My research expertise includes Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing), optimization techniques, Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Response Surface Methodology (RSM), tribological analysis, and mechanical characterization of polymer materials such as PLA and PLA+.

At the USP, I am passionate about applying engineering knowledge to solve real-world industrial problems while contributing to research, teaching, and technological advancement in Pakistan.

Teaching & Supervision

Courses

  • Thermodynamics
  • Engineering statistics

Teaching Philosophy

Education is not a series of victories or defeats measured by grades, scores, or correct answers. Instead, a student’s true character and the ultimate purpose of learning is forged not in the battles they win or lose, but in the battles they are willing to begin and fight.

Workshops & Training

  • Training Workshop on Introduction to MATLAB & Python Programming (NUST)
  • Volunteer Workshops on Social Cohesion, Climate Change & Disaster Management (Lodhran Pilot Project)

Collaboration

Open to international collaborations in the field of Additive manufacturing
