All about me

As a Senior Research Assistant at Technological University Dublin (TU Dublin), I am working on Educational Game Design. As a Researcher I love to explore the intersection of GIS, Spatial Learning Analytics, H5P and Distance Education. I have a MS in Remote Sensing and GIS from the National University of Sciences and Technology (NUST), Pakistan, which is ranked #1 in Pakistan and among the top 100 Asian universities by QS.

With over 10 years of experience in EdTech research and training, I am passionate about enhancing the quality and accessibility of online education. I have received multiple international and national awards and fellowships for my innovative and best practices in open and distance learning. I have also published more than 20 research papers in various journals and conferences. My current project focuses on mapping learning analytics with learning designs to improve student outcomes and retention.
