Summary

I am a civil engineer with a robust academic and professional background in structural engineering. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering and a Master's degree in Structural Engineering from the National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST). My education has been complemented by significant practical experience in both consultancy and academic settings. Currently, I serve as a Lecturer in the Structures Department at NUST, where I specialize in smart concrete materials and structural engineering. My role involves not only teaching and mentoring students but also engaging in cutting-edge research in advanced materials and structural systems. Previously, I worked with NESPAK, a prominent engineering consultancy firm, where I contributed to various high-profile projects. Additionally, I have four years of experience as a Lab Engineer, focusing on Concrete, Structures, and Hydraulics Labs. This role allowed me to develop a deep understanding of laboratory testing, quality control, and the application of theoretical principles in practical scenarios. My expertise encompasses structural analysis, smart concrete materials, and hydraulic systems. I am dedicated to advancing the field of structural engineering through both academic and practical contributions.
