I'm a problem-solver at heart and thrive on finding solutions to complex issues, especially when it involves learning something new in the process.

Trained as a Mechatronics Engineer, I have been fortunate enough to develop skills in software development, which allows me to come up with holistic solutions that leverage developments in both fields. Currently, I am particularly interested in robotics and embedded solutions, however, I am always eager to learn new skills and techniques to help me tackle new challenges.

In my free time, I enjoy dabbling in graphics design as an outlet for my creative energy, helping collectives that I am involved with. I am passionate about using my skills and knowledge to make a positive impact.

My diverse cultural background - born in Pakistan, raised in Kenya, and now living in Germany - has exposed me to a range of cultures and ways of thinking. This diverse perspective is an asset in an increasingly interconnected world.

On this website, you will find information about my professional background and experience, as well as some of the projects and initiatives I have been involved in. I hope this information gives you a better understanding of my tenacity and passion for problem-solving, and the fulfilment it brings me. Thank you for visiting!
