What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my business analysis, quantitative research, and data-management skills to roles where I can turn reliable data into practical operational or policy insights.

I've supported government-contract pipelines at NextGen Corp IT, researched labor-market disparities at LUMS, and managed data for field-based programs in Chitral. I use Excel, STATA, SQL, and databases to clean data, build analyses, and communicate policy-relevant findings.

I've also led logistics for 15+ trips across Pakistan with a perfect safety record, coordinated cultural and sports initiatives, and co-founded “90’s ki SAMA.” to manage social media content and paid advertising.
