At the University of Oregon, I investigated thermal stress in modernizing self-built housing in Northern Pakistan. My doctoral research combined building energy simulations and thermal monitoring with social and ethnographic research.
As a Freelance Architect in Pakistan, I completed one single-family home and am designing a second. I also designed residential and low-rise commercial projects at Karim Associates and supervised their construction.
As a Postdoctoral Research Fellow (Courtesy) at the University of Oregon, I conduct research and prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed publications. I’m interested in design and policy solutions that support climate-responsive construction in low-income communities.
