Biography

I am a researcher in the field of Additive Manufacturing (3D & 4D printing), smart structures, polymer composites, nanomaterials assembly and biomaterials.
As a research assistant and Ph.D. Candidate at Villanova University College of Engineering, I am passionate about advancing the field of additive manufacturing, smart structures, nanomaterials assembly, and human-computer interface.

I have a strong background in materials science and engineering, with a master's degree from the Institute of Space Technology (IST) and a bachelor's degree in physics from the University of Wah. I have published my work in high-impact journals, such as American Chemical Society, Advanced Engineering Materials, Materials Letter, Journal of Thermoplastic Composite Materials, and IEEE Xplore, and won several awards such as the Best Oral Presentation award by the 17th International Symposium on Advanced Materials. I have also gained valuable experience as a lecturer, researcher, and developer in various institutes and projects, such as the Pakistan-UK Education Gateway (British Council) and the National Centre for Physics. I have acquired multiple skills, such as 3D bioprinting, fractography, and advanced materials, that enable me to innovate and collaborate effectively. My goal is to help the earth move towards a sustainable future by creating novel solutions for various challenges in the fields of health, energy, and the environment.
