Introduction
Hello!
I'm a LUMS graduate and passionate software engineer who loves designing and building impactful projects
across diverse tech stacks. I enjoy exploring how systems are designed and keep up with the latest in
tech and research—when I'm not gaming! 🎮 I am open to exploring roles in Software Engineering.

Projects
A CRM-agnostic middleware that enriches chatbot-to-human escalations with LLM-generated briefs (summary, sentiment, intent, urgency) and delivers them to helpdesks via a pluggable adapter architecture. Built using FastAPI and deployed on an EC2 instance.
Built an end-to-end NLP pipeline on WhatsApp chat data using Python, Pandas, NumPy, and BERT to extract behavioral metrics and sentiment insights, surfacing results through a companion web application
Developed an application backend using the Actix web framework to integrate with OpenAI’s APIs. Created a custom macro to optimize string token handling, boosting performance. Employed three class-based smart agents, each with distinct roles, to streamline application functionality.
I collaborated with Dr. Murtaza Taj to preserve petroglyphs at the Diamer-Bhasha dam site by creating 3D models from laser scans and designing an interactive virtual environment in Unity, complete with site-accurate layouts and custom Blender assets.
I collaborated with Dr. Suleman Shahid to create a user-centric prototype for boosting NGO donor engagement. Through targeted research, Figma-based prototyping, and testing with NGO partners, we refined the design to enhance usability and impact.
Developed a social app for LUMS’ Office of Student Affairs, enabling moderators to post events and users to RSVP. Built on the MERN stack, it integrates VoIP for voice chat and Google Maps API for live location sharing.
Worked with a team to build a fully functional Spotify clone, featuring music search, playback, playlist management, and user follow capabilities. Demonstrated expertise in full-stack development, database management, and project execution.
Redesigned and developed an updated website, transforming it from an old template to a modernized version. Leveraged HTML and CSS to refactor elements across pages and used Bootstrap classes to enhance interactivity.
