🎓 INTRODUCTION

I graduated in 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science from the Karachi Institute of Economics and Technology, Pakistan. My journey into the world of technology began here, where I built a strong foundation in core computing concepts and problem-solving. With a natural inclination toward innovation and systems thinking, I transitioned into the logistics sector, working as a Business IT Analyst at TPL Logistics, a pioneering Pakistani startup focused on digitizing the country’s logistics operations from the first mile to the last. Recently, in 2024, I completed a Master’s Degree in Government Science from Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta, Indonesia. My academic and professional experiences have sparked a profound interest in research—especially on how governance and public administration can be transformed through digital innovation. I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Government Affairs and Administration to further this vision.
