Experience

  • Fundraised, designed, built and packaged robotics kits from scratch.
    Taught children how to make my first product “The Fibonacci Clock” using the materials in the kit, including breadboarding, soldering and arduino coding.
    Through the success of the kits in the UAE, I was able to receive funds to create special edition kits for underprivileged children in rural areas of Pakistan. I hosted workshops and created Fibonacci clocks with six hundred students, exposing them to the engineering field.
    I will soon sell fully finished kits on my website with all the revenue being donated to TCF, a charity that empowers girls with the right to an education in Pakistan.

    • Spent over 200 hours researching and prototyping at the eBRAIN lab.
      Created an optimized LSTM machine learning algorithm that interprets EEG signals with the assistance of isolated EEG artifacts, determining the real time movement of transhumeral prostheses.
      Designed and built a light weight, ultra-low cost EEG-controlled prosthetic/robotic arm with 7 degrees of freedom for patients of paralysis and amputees.
      Researched and stimulated different brain waves caused by steady-state evoked potentials (SVEPs) such as the p300 wave, testing novel approaches to non-invasive brain computer interfaces (BCIs).Spent over 200 hours researching and prototyping at the eBRAIN lab.

  • First nation wide AI Based Hackathon organized by students for students under the patronage of the UAE Ministry of A.I. It will take place March 1st - 3rd at the DIFC Innovation HQ. More information at: uae-innovaite.com.

  • Helped design the backend and frontend of a prototype for a UAE startup company . The company identified a market gap for wheelchair accessible vehicles in the UAE which they sourced externally to empower People of Determination.

    • Helped create booking databases for a healthcare start-up which schedules sessions for patients and their doctor. Helped create booking databases for a healthcare start-up which schedules sessions for patients and their doctor

  • Built drones from scratch using micro-computers such as arduino, soldering, C and maintenance systems. I also learnt the aerodynamics of drones as well as how to operate professional drones, earning me my UAE drones license.

  • I raised enough money through an innovative fundraiser called a 'dribblethon' to provide an education for 3 girls in rural Pakistan for a year. I was lucky enough to meet these girls and am so inspired by their curiosity and passion to learn. I have so much to learn from them.
