Our Team

 Here's us, in order of age. 

Dr. Muhammad Babur

I consider myself an interesting person yet I am comfortable with ‘not-so-interesting-people’. I am truly grateful that throughout my life I have enjoyed attending the best schools, serving diverse sectors/audiences and building communities of practitioners (such as Knowledge Cafe) and communities of scholars (e.g., ELLTA). 

I am grateful that I can: read a situation from multiple perspectives - including disruptive ones; genuinely listen to others for hours; design/propose innovative solutions; and, implement ideas creatively. I think my interests in ‘design thinking’, ability to see ‘bigger picture’ and deeper understanding of the role of culture have enabled me for the above. 

I have contributes to both national and international organizations which include, but not limited to: public sector; corporate sector: (inter)national development partners such as ECORYS, DFID, USAID, CIDA, UNICEF, WORLD BANK, UNESCO, IIEP, RTI, ASI, EU, GPE, I-SAPs, etc.; and, as well as academia such as UMT, AKU, IoBM, FAST-NU. 

I am a people's person who has been to over 17 countries such as Austria, Australia, Thailand, Belgium, China, Denmark, Dubai, France, Germany, Indonesia, Malaysia, Netherlands, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Singapore, Sweden and the United Kingdom to meet them. 

Let's plan to meet!

Muhammad Kashif Nayab

Strong background in large-scale enterprise web applications. I love doing “Sketch & Design” engaging solutions keeping in mind the user needs on variety of platforms, and passionate in building functional user interfaces and creative data visualizations for complex data sets.

I started out as a designer but had an eagerness to learn new technologies and front-end engineering. I thoroughly enjoy the creative process of coming up with designs and features, but equally love the problem-solving component of coding and implementation. My creativity and keen eye for aesthetics coupled with my technical skills and sharp attention to detail drive my passion to create user interfaces providing positive and streamlined user experience.

Saad Rehman Shah

Passionate about learning. I believe any situation, no matter how bad, can be made better. And consequently, worse. If there was one thing I would dedicate my life to, it would be to empower everyone to do meaningful work and have meaingful relationships. That's right, I said one thing, and mentioned two. I thing they're one and the same thing. Founder Bamanaa Foundation, Advisor the lab school, Engineering Manager at Techwards.
