01 — Background

About Me

I'm a Computer Science undergraduate at FAST-NUCES Islamabad (BS CS, expected 2028, currently in my 5th semester). I enjoy working close to the metal — from writing x86 Assembly that talks directly to video memory, to architecting normalized relational schemas that stay consistent under load.

My focus sits at the intersection of systems programming, backend development, and AI/ML. I've independently shipped production-grade projects spanning assembly game engines, graph-algorithm AI planners, and multi-table relational backends, and I'm seeking competitive software engineering internships in these domains.

Projects

Featured

Super Mario Clone

x86 Assembly (COAL) · Low-Level Systems

A side-scrolling platformer built entirely in x86 Assembly, rendering directly to VGA memory with no OS abstraction layer.

Direct VGA

Render path

<1ms

Input latency

  • ▹Real-time frame rendering by writing directly to VGA video memory (Mode 13h), bypassing OS I/O layers.
  • ▹Register-allocated bounding-box collision engine using dedicated x86 registers for position and velocity.
  • ▹Sub-millisecond input response by hooking hardware keyboard interrupts (INT 09h).

CityMind — AI City Layout Optimizer

Python · Graph Algorithms · Heuristic Search

A planning tool that models a city as a weighted graph and searches for road and zoning layouts that minimize commute cost and resource waste.

MST + Dijkstra

Approach

Scored layouts

Output

  • ▹Modeled land-use zones as weighted graph nodes; spanning-tree heuristics minimize road-network edge weight.
  • ▹Shortest-path algorithms evaluate commute efficiency, resource usage, and zone-balance scores.
  • ▹Visual city-map output with a scored trade-off report comparing layout decisions.

Mehflix — Event Management Platform

Java 17 · JavaFX · SQL (Oracle / MySQL)

A desktop event-booking platform with a normalized relational backend that guarantees no double-bookings across venue categories.

5

Venue categories

<1s

Query latency

  • ▹Eliminated double-booking across 5 venue categories via composite unique constraints and transactional isolation.
  • ▹Full referential integrity across a normalized schema using foreign keys and cascading rules.
  • ▹Indexed multi-table joins delivering sub-second query response on the real-time cost calculator.

Hospital Management System

PHP · MS SQL Server · MySQL · XAMPP

A full-stack hospital backend handling admissions, ward assignment, and discharge with transaction-safe rollback and automated reporting.

  • ▹Transaction-safe admission, ward-assignment, and discharge workflows with rollback-on-error handlers.
  • ▹Automated treatment-summary and ward-occupancy reports via stored procedures and AFTER-INSERT triggers.
  • ▹Reduced report-generation time from manual queries to a single procedure call.

Sonic Triple-Player & Buzz Bomber Arcade

C++ · SFML · Game Engine / Systems

A three-player arcade game with a fixed-timestep engine designed to keep physics, rendering, and input perfectly in sync.

60 FPS

Frame rate

3 concurrent

Players

  • ▹Stable 60 FPS under three simultaneous player inputs using a fixed-timestep game loop.
  • ▹Decoupled physics updates from render calls to prevent frame-time spikes.
  • ▹Zero per-frame allocations via a polymorphic entity hierarchy reusing pre-allocated objects.
