About

I am an architect. I have been working as a Chairman at the Architecture department of Premier University. With 17 years of experience in the field of architecture, I have had the opportunity to work on a diverse range of projects, such as residential, commercial, and urban design, focusing on sustainability and environmental solutions.

In addition to my practice, I have the privilege of teaching at the Architecture Department, Premier University, where I am passionate about nurturing the next generation of architects. My teaching philosophy emphasizes hands-on learning, design thinking, and interdisciplinary collaboration. I believe in the power of architecture to shape environments and foster community.
