As a licensed Professional Engineer in Ontario since 2021, I bring a wealth of experience and a strong educational background in energy engineering and management. I earned my bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from Ghulam Ishaq Khan Institute (GIKI) in Pakistan, a program renowned for its rigorous curriculum and focus on innovation. After moving to Canada in 2016, I further honed my expertise by completing a Master of Engineering (MEng) at the University of Toronto in 2018, specializing in Energy Engineering and Energy Management.
My career in Canada began with CLEAResult Consulting, where I played a pivotal role in delivering and implementing comprehensive energy management programs. This experience laid a solid foundation for my subsequent position at Johnson Controls, where I contributed as a Project Development Engineer within their Energy Services (ESCO) team. Here, I successfully developed and managed projects for municipal and federal clients, guiding them on their energy efficiency and decarbonization journeys.
Currently, I am part of Honeywell, where I collaborate with Public-Private Partnership (P3) customers. My role focuses on ensuring the energy-efficient operation of their facilities and upholding energy performance guarantees, showcasing my ability to drive impactful results in complex, high-stakes environments.
