01  /  About

Engineer. Builder.
Problem Solver.

I'm a Senior iOS Developer with over five years of experience designing, developing, and maintaining high-quality iOS applications. My work spans fintech and healthcare — two of the most demanding domains in mobile.

Currently at i2C Inc., I lead UI component systems and mentor a team of 10+ engineers. Previously at CureMD, I built HealthKit-integrated healthcare apps with 100% accessibility compliance. At Emblem Technologies, I delivered apps reaching 50,000+ active users within six months of launch.

Outside of client work, I enjoy building side projects — including a real-time multiplayer card game built with React, TypeScript, and Socket.IO, and several published apps across music, food delivery, and social media.

I hold a BS in Information Technology from PUCIT, University of the Punjab, with a concentration in Mobile Application Development.
