A highly motivated, goal oriented, self-driven and confident graduate with a bachelor of Architecture degree currently doing MSc Architecture in Alternative Energy and Environment Studies from Graduate School of Environment Machynlleth – Wales. I am a British national, currently based in Pakistan, with portfolio having a wide variety of projects that were designed during more than 9 years of experience in the profession, from the Residential design to the Recreational projects, Government Bidding projects to small commercial office and educational buildings. Currently, the portfolio is expanding with United Nations Human Settlement Programme (UN-Habitat) giving me exposure to the socio-economic, anthropological and environment paradigm. One of the most notable projects that has been completed is the Flood Recovery project in the three distinct area of Sindh. With the ardent interest in climatic and socially responsive development, Sustainable Housing modular prototypes were constructed for the rural areas in Sind and Baluchistan. My current portfolio is looking into the trends of urbanisation and to pave way towards the policy of urban development through discourses among stake holders. In addition, I am also involved in the preparation of overarching program of the Climate Change vulnerability assessments of the cities of Pakistan. I have interests in arts, theatre and music; my areas of interest are culture and the city. This derives me to keep travelling, photographing and discover new places and like to work in a team and establish an environment where everyone can produce their maximum whilst ensuring timely completion of tasks, concurrently taking every opportunity to develop and challenge my own skills.
