I’m a PhD researcher working on self-powered wearable sensors by designing and modeling triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) and flexible polymer-based devices that harvest mechanical energy. My focus is on improving device performance and reliability by combining materials understanding, theoretical modeling + COMSOL simulation, and hands-on prototyping/testing, with Python-based data analysis and signal processing to turn lab results into practical sensing solutions.
PHYS 1P90 - Foundations of Physics with Laboratory (Instructor: Prof. David J. Crandles) IENG 2P03 - Electric and Electronic Circuits (Instructor: Prof. Mohsin Jamil) IENG 2P01 - Manufacturing Processes (Instructor: Prof. Hassan Askari)
• Arranged Criterion Outlines as per IB standards, conducted DP & MYP Physics classes, and provided guidance to 10 + students for their research on physics education for IB internal assessments and extended essays. • Led the MYP Assessment Team, overseeing all MYP examinations since the first month of my tenure.
• Engaged in developing PCFs sensors based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR). • Provided assistance to master's thesis students in establishment of fundamental research principles for photonic crystal fibres.
• Delivered dynamic physics lectures that were customized for international board students, including those enrolled in the IB (MYP and DP Program) and IGCSE. • Created impactful content and produced YouTube videos with the aim of promoting organizational growth.
• Delivered physics lectures to junior and senior high school students. By establishing a dynamic platform for effective learning, I was able to engage 150 + students and foster their curiosity towards the subject. • Designed and established a comprehensive curriculum framework for K-12 learners within the institute. This initiative was implemented successfully and has been instrumental in enabling students to acquire a solid foundation in Physics.
