Dedicated Civil Engineer, graduate (B.E Civil) from Mehran University of Engineering Technology and MBA (Management) from University of Sindh, having several years of experience in planning, implementation and monitoring of Emergency community based developments projects at mid-level positions. I have led the number of teams in a supervisory role to carry out field projects. I had the opportunity to serve for Welthungerhilfe (German INGO), Actionaid Pakistan and NRSP, which is a public sector owned community oriented organization, as a Project Engineer to carry to implement worth Rs.300 million, Community Physical Infrastructure (CPI) projects of Communications, Drinking Water Schemes, and Irrigations, rehabilitation of Hospitals and Schools in Sindh. Currently, I am working with Jhpiego (INGO) Karachi as Chief Engineer supervising the Repair and Renovation project of health facilities in 15 Districts of Sindh. In Welthungerhilfe I had completed more than construction of 3000 shelters, 2000 hand pumps, 3000 latrines in perspective of DRR. This exposure has enhanced my knowledge and skills of development and disaster related humanitarian assisted initiatives particularly with reference to provision of WATSAN and Shelter in emergencies considering the DRR factors.
I have enriched my professional growth by getting different trainings, OTW (Orientation Training Workshop), Auto-Cad, PCM (Project Cycle Management), SAP (Structure Analysis Program), DRR (Disaster Risk reduction), PSAIT (Pakistan security awareness Induction Training) from IOM and First Aid training from Pakistan Red Crescent.
