Mission Statement: My goal is to leverage technology to drive large-scale impact, tackling some of humanity's most pressing challenges.
Key Achievements: "I took risk and quit my job at 41 years to pursue my passion of entrepreneurship. In 2021, we developed an AI-based vehicle make and make model classification system for SafeCity Islamabad. The demo was better than a similar system they purchased from a US company. I have been able to raise grants worth PKR 25M. Achieved all deliverables successfully for every grant.
Influences: "Nepolean Hill's Think and Grow Rich, had a major influence. I was able to take a renewed perspective on my professional pathway, and look beyond the limited things I could do with my academic job. As an employee, I had noticed how in-different people are using air conditioners at work - energy wastage is never a concern. This appeared to be a huge problem and a massive opportunity - this is my motivation for working on an energy intelligence system to eliminate wastages for small and medium-sized commercial buildings. As an academic, I observed performance being assessed on superficial metrics. I wanted to create real value - organise efficient team to tackle large scale problem."
