Projects
My projects have ranged across medicine, education, technology, policy, and data. Across them, I tend to return to the same questions: how complex systems work, where they fail, and how technology can make them better.
Pakistan & Türkiye Bilateral Trade Growth Roadmap
CompletedComprehensive research study and actionable strategic roadmap targeting trade expansion from $1B to $5B USD.
Why it mattered
Bilateral trade between Pakistan and Türkiye has historically lagged behind economic potential due to tariff asymmetries, logistical bottlenecks, and limited sector-specific bilateral trade frameworks.
What I did
Synthesized trade flow data, evaluated high-potential export sectors (textiles, surgical instruments, agriculture, and engineering goods), and authored policy roadmaps outlining targeted tariff rationalizations and B2B engagement mechanisms.
Molecular Genetics & Clinical Biomedical Research
CompletedIntensive molecular laboratory research covering PCR analysis, Drosophila DNA research, and clinical training.
Why it mattered
Bridging the gap between theoretical molecular biology concepts and rigorous, sterile laboratory protocols required in modern genomic and clinical diagnostics.
What I did
Mastered practical protocols in PCR amplification, gel electrophoresis, sample centrifugation, DNA extraction from Drosophila models, and clinical procedures including sterile IV cannula insertion and CPR.
EdEqual: Community Tutoring & Academic Intervention
CompletedHead Tutor leading 20 peer-tutors across community schools, achieving 100% pass rate in at-risk student intervention.
Why it mattered
High dropout rates and learning deficits among primary school students in under-resourced community schools without individualized academic attention.
What I did
Structured small-group peer instruction, designed responsive review curricula, managed a 20-tutor roster, and conducted focused remedial sessions in July 2024 that resulted in all 30 at-risk students successfully advancing.
CPLC Civic Crime Trend Analysis & Victim Support
CompletedQuantitative crime analysis and victim communication support with the Citizens Police Liaison Committee.
Why it mattered
Complex, unstructured incident data and high emotional distress among victims of crime seeking clear assistance and case progress clarity.
What I did
Assisted in aggregating and analyzing incident patterns, drafting clear communication guidelines, and facilitating supportive victim interaction workflows within the liaison system.
National Science Olympiad & STEM Council Leadership
CompletedExecutive Council leadership for Karachi Grammar Science Olympiad and Inter-House STEM competition winner.
Why it mattered
Organizing a large-scale national scientific competition requiring seamless event coordination, fair challenge module design, and active troubleshooting.
What I did
Managed on-ground event operations, coordinated scientific problem-solving challenges, and provided academic guidance to underclassmen in STEM subjects.
Pediatric Patient Welfare & Clinical Observership
CompletedHospital clinical observership and patient welfare initiative at the National Institute of Child Health.
Why it mattered
Providing emotional and material comfort to hospitalized pediatric patients while acquiring foundational clinical procedural competency.
What I did
Organized fundraising and gift drives for hospitalized children, assisted ward staff with non-medical logistics, and gained practical exposure to essential bedside emergency procedures.
