I build intelligent digital products, AI-powered systems and modern software experiences.

01About

I BUILDINTELLIGENTDIGITALSYSTEMS.

I'm four semesters into a Data Science degree at FAST-NUCES, building software professionally alongside it — a public site and self-hosted CMS, and an internal operations system a wireline company runs its reporting, crews and compliance on. Beyond that: relational systems, analytics and forecasting, edge-AI research, and systems programming. What carries across is a preference for boundaries written down rather than assumed.

WLE Website

Professional Work/2026

Well Logging Energy

In development · CMS connected, content migration in progress

A public website and self-hosted CMS for an independent wireline and well-testing company, built on a strict contract between the people who publish content and the code that renders it.

  • Payload CMS
  • PostgreSQL
  • Railway

Internal Management System

Professional Work/July 2026 — Present

Well Logging Energy

Deployed internally · under active development

An internal operations system for a wireline company — incident reporting, crews, equipment, attendance and medical readiness — held together by one permission model and the test suite that guards it.

  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • PostgreSQL
  • Drizzle
  • Zod

RideFlow

Relational Systems/2026

Public prototype · the hosted demo no longer responds

A multi-role ride-hailing simulation where the business rules live in MySQL — procedures, triggers and constraints — rather than in the Express layer above them.

  • Express
  • JavaScript
  • MySQL
  • Railway

DataPulse

Analytics/May 2026

Public prototype · hosted deployment unresolved

A business analytics dashboard that turns any sales CSV into KPIs, charts and forecasts — pointed at a new dataset by editing a column mapping rather than the code.

  • Python
  • Pandas
  • Streamlit
  • Plotly
  • Prophet

Distributed AI Micromouse

Edge AI Research/2026 — Present

Phases 1 and 2 complete · experiments not yet run

A research platform comparing Q-Learning and Deep Q-Learning for resource-constrained edge AI, with simulation, real-time training, telemetry, and future federated-learning experiments.

  • Python
  • ROS2
  • PyTorch
  • ESP32
  • TensorFlow Lite

Financial Tick Data Pipeline

C++ & Operating Systems/May 2026

Complete · one commit, and nothing measured

A compact Linux pipeline coordinating processes, POSIX IPC, worker threads, and aggregation to transform tick CSV records into per-symbol summaries.
