In Summer 2025, I am leading a learning group focused on Lean4. See the Teaching page for more details.
I am teaching Calculus I (Math 135) at Rutgers University–Newark in Summer - I 2025.
I completed Ph.D. in Mathematics in Spring 2025 from Rutgers University–Newark.
My area of research includes
Low-Dimensional Topology,
Computational Topology, and
Knot Theory.
My Ph.D. advisor was
Anastasiia Tsvietkova.
Before joining Rutgers, I began my Ph.D. journey at the
Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST)
in Okinawa, Japan, where I spent two years. I hold a Master’s degree in Mathematics from the
Institute of Business Administration, Karachi, Pakistan,
where my supervisor was Danish Ali.
