Hello, I am a Full-Stack Web Developer,
a Filmmaker, and a Painter. I am currently looking for work where I can enjoy the analytical and technical side of myself and indulge in the entire development process to build intuitive, fast, and beautifully designed products.

Growing up, I was surrounded by storytellers. These storytellers connected me to my Pakistani heritage and inspired me to understand the culture I had inherited. As I learned, I wondered if there was a way to share these stories with others.
And then, I discovered a way through technology. I like solving problems and making things beautiful. Thus gradually realized technology has a unique relationship with art, and I got to combine both of these pursuits in my work doing Web and App Development.
