About Me
Building computing things from first principles
Final-year Computer Engineering student at KICSIT, Institute of Space Technology, Islamabad. I work from transistors upward: HDL, FPGAs, firmware, circuits, and the systems around them.

My Story
My hardware obsession started before university: builders like Ben Eater, discrete logic, and the slow work of understanding how a machine computes from the bottom up. That curiosity pulled me into HDL design, FPGA implementation, embedded firmware, PCB work, and enough software to make the hardware useful.
I have worked with Unity, Blender, AutoCAD, Assembly, cybersecurity, web development, machine learning, and electronics. Not scattered curiosity. More like a compulsion to understand how all of it connects.
What I Do
Digital Hardware & FPGA: Verilog, SystemVerilog, VHDL, RTL design, pipelined processor architecture, synthesis, timing analysis, and bitstream generation.
Embedded Systems: STM32 firmware in C/C++, real-time control, sensor integration, stepper motor control, and hardware-software co-design.
Electronics: PCB design, circuit analysis, soldering, and building computing systems from discrete logic and transistors.
