I'm a mathematics educator from Chakwal, Pakistan. For the past nine years I've taught undergraduate mathematics at Horizon Degree & Commerce College, the same college where I earned my own BSc in Mathematics. My courses have ranged from Real Analysis and Abstract Algebra to Discrete Mathematics, Numerical Analysis, Statistics, and Machine Learning, and I've taught more than 1,500 students along the way.

My classroom is now international too. I'm a section leader for Stanford's Probability for AI, selected out of more than 2,700 participants from over 70 countries. My section is made up of top tech minds, researchers, and working professionals from the USA, UK, Germany, Portugal, Spain, and India. After each class I re-explain the week's ideas with Manim animations, which Stanford professors and fellow section leaders have appreciated.

My research has taken me through two very different areas: fluid dynamics for my MSc, and elliptic-curve cryptography for my MPhil in Mathematics, which I finished while teaching full-time. That same interest in working through hard problems carefully led me to AI mathematical reasoning more recently. I competed in Kaggle's AI Mathematical Olympiad (AIMO3) and placed in the top 12% of teams worldwide.

Outside the classroom, I run PlotLab, where I build Manim animations that make abstract mathematics easier to see and understand. They reach 85K+ followers on Facebook and 15K+ on Instagram, and my YouTube channel, PlotLab Algorithms, teaches data science, machine learning, cryptography, math, DSA, and statistics visually. I've also built an AI doubt-clearing assistant that answers my own students' questions straight from their course notes, and I'm currently applying to PhD programs in Data Science, Applied Mathematics, and Statistics.

Education

Degrees & theses

2018 – 2021

MPhil in Mathematics

Capital University of Science & Technology (CUST), Islamabad

Thesis: Generalized Signcryption Based on Elliptic Curve Cryptography. I extended an existing ECC-based signcryption scheme so it could also run in signature-only or encryption-only mode, and analyzed it fully for security and computational cost.

2015 – 2017

MSc in Mathematics

COMSATS University Islamabad, Attock Campus

Thesis: Flow of Eyring-Powell Fluid in a Channel Using Adomian Decomposition Method. I worked out a series solution for non-Newtonian channel flow and studied how velocity, flow rate, and stream function changed under different parameters.

2012 – 2014

BSc in Mathematics

Horizon Degree & Commerce College, Chakwal

Core coursework: Calculus, Linear Algebra, Mathematical Methods, Metric Spaces, Mechanics.

Experience

Academic career

2026 – Present

Section Leader, Probability for AI

Stanford University (online course)

Selected out of 2,700+ participants from 70+ countries to lead a section of top tech minds, researchers, and working professionals. I write detailed worked solutions for each week and build Manim animations that Stanford professors and fellow section leaders have appreciated.

June 2024 – Present

Head of Department, Mathematics

Horizon Degree & Commerce College, Chakwal

I lead academic operations across campuses, including faculty assignments, course distribution, and curriculum development, and chair departmental seminars on emerging technologies in mathematics and AI.

March 2017 – May 2024
