About

Researcher.
Academic. Philanthropist.

I work at the intersection of technology, cognition, and digital society — asking why digital systems behave the way they do, and how they could serve people better. My research sits between computer science, social science, and design. This helps me design AI solutions that are human-centerd and solve real-world problems in energy, health, support sciences, and mobility.

Before joining SETU, I held academic and research positions at leading engineering universities in Pakistan, and Malaysia.

EYESPEAK — Mental Fatigue Detection in Team Sports

Mental fatigue quietly erodes attention and decision-making in team field sports, yet it is still assessed mostly through self-report or complex laboratory tests. EYESPEAK is developing an interpretable, low-burden way to estimate a Mental Fatigue Score from everyday, non-intrusive signals captured during normal training — turning it into clear, coach-facing guidance rather than raw data. The goal is a scalable, privacy-respecting tool that fits alongside existing readiness checks and supports athlete welfare in high-performance sport.
