ABOUT ME

The builder who breaks his own work.

I'm a Computer Science student at FAST (NUCES), Lahore — class of 2026, and a software engineer who works across full-stack, web3, AI/ML, and security. I write software for a living and attack it for a hobby — and over time the two stopped being separate activities.

Most of my work is full-stack: a MERN e-commerce store (Codabar), a matchmaking app for web and React Native (Nikkah Net), and an ASP.NET Core social platform (MateLink). From there I kept pulling toward the parts other people avoid — smart contracts and the seams where systems leak — so I built on-chain document verification into my final-year project (Mentora) and a full NFT marketplace (PakNFT) in Solidity.

I also build with AI/ML: a ResNet classifier that grades diabetic retinopathy from retinal scans, and LLM/RAG apps with LangChain — a textbook Q&A assistant and conversational agents.

How I actually work

I build something real, then put on the other hat and try to defeat it. CTFs (top 5% at Hackfinity, plus PicoCTF and OverTheWire) and self-audits keep that loop honest, and I'm extending it into smart-contract auditing and security research. The whole point is undocumented skill turned into visible, reproducible proof.
