Featured Project

Humanitarian AI Dashboard

December 2025
Case Studies Section Ethics Section Contact Section Resources Section Data & Analytics Home Page Home Page 2 Qatar Section Musaaed (AI Chatbot)

I developed a full-stack dashboard that was part of a collaboration between Qatar Univeristy and the British Embassy in Qatar. The dashboard features aggregation of many Ethical AI Policies, Case Studies, and Resources. In addition, it includes Data & Analytics of important trends regarding the growth of Humanitarian AI in the MENA region. There is also Musaaed, your personal AI Assistant that will help you overall with your expercience. The website also features AI scraping and an Admin Page to manage pending content.

MOBILE APP DEVELOPMENT

Featured Project

Ni'ma

January 2026

Ni'ma is our Start-up Idea. I developed a mobile application and Restaurant Dashboard for Ni'ma. The mobile app shows nearby restaurants using GeoJSON calculations and their surplus deals. For now, you can order Cash Only. The restaurant Dashboard provides all capabilities in order to connect with the customers.

Frontend: React Native, HTML, CSS, JavaScript
Backend: Node JS, JWT, Bcrypt, Async Storage
DataBase: MongoDB
Tools & APIs: Postman, GeoJSON, Google Maps
Features:

Order Deals, Rate Restaurants, Personal Profile, Restaurant Dashboard, Restaurant Management System

Machine Learning

Featured Project

ML Quadratic Equation Mimicking - Improved

January 2026

Improved version of my previously implemented ML model that mimicks the function f(x) = x2

Technologies: Python, NumPy
Concepts: Matrices, Dot Product, Mean-Squared-Error (Loss function), Gradient, Gradient Descent
Results: This model did much better as opposed to the previous model, which wasn't performing well. I successfully increased the complexity of this model by designing a model with 4 main layers. 1st layer is the input, which is a single neuron for a single number. 2nd layer consists of 4 neurons with Sigmoid Activation. 3rd layer is exactly as the 2nd layer. Finally, the 4th layer is a single neuron with a single output that predicts the corresponding output for the input x.

ML Quadratic Equation Mimicking

January 2026

Made a basic ML model with 4 neurons, where the model is trained on predicting the outputs of the function of y = x2

Technologies: Python
Concepts: Mean-Squared-Error (Loss function), Gradient, Gradient Descent
Results: The model performed horribly due to insufficient complexity. Meaning, the model found a good local minima that minimized its loss (~13856.675), but the loss couldn't go down from there and therefore the model couldn't model the function x2. In addition, the reason I didn't increase the number of neurons is due to having a variable for every weight, activation, bias, and gradient, which makes the process of calculating forward propagation and backpropagation quite difficult. This suggests that I should use a library that offers matrices manipluations like NumPy. Nevertheless, this was an amazing experiment to get to know deeply how NNs work

ML Linear Regression

January 2026

Made a very basic ML Model that predicts slope and y-intersect of a linear function using linear regression. Made this as a practice to improve my knowledge in ML.

Technologies: Python
Concepts: Mean-Squared-Error (Loss function), Gradient, Gradient Descent
Results: The model succeeded in mimicking the function y = 4x + 5 successfully, predicting outputs that are really close to the correct ones after 100 epochs

NEWSROOM

Received Dean's List Award
30 April, 2026

Dean's List Award Image
Received the Dean's List Award for outstanding academic performance.

Attended the ML workshop at QU
8 January, 2026

ML Workshop Image
In this workshop, we studied the basics of Machine Learning. We covered various topics, from types of learning (Supervised, Unsupervised, Reinforcement), DNNs, CNNs, RNNs (Like LSTMs), Word Embedding, Encoding, Decoding, and Transformers. We also got the chance to apply this theoretical knowledge with Laboratories where we learned basic API of NumPy and TensorFlow/Keras.

Participated at the Qatar Health Tech Hackathon 2025
4 December, 2025

We developed Dalil, your guide for lab test preparation. Lab test failures cost hospitals approximately $450,000 annually, with 95% occurring in the pre-analytical phase due to miscommunication and language barriers. Dalil solves this by providing patients with clear, multilingual instructions and educational visual graphics, ensuring they properly prepare for tests and reducing costly errors.
