I am a seasoned lecturer in Visual Communication Design at the University Of Gujrat, where I have been imparting knowledge and expertise since 2015. With a robust educational background, holding an M.Phil. in Graphic Design, I bring over 15 years of experience in the field, making significant contributions to both academia and the design industry. Having developed a comprehensive understanding of design principles and visual communication strategies, I excel in creating an engaging and dynamic learning environment. My curriculum encompasses a variety of subjects, including typography, color theory, digital media, and branding, reflecting the ever-evolving nature of graphic design. By blending theoretical foundations with practical applications, I equip students with the necessary skills to thrive in a competitive landscape. In addition to my teaching role, I am actively engaged in research that explores contemporary trends in graphic design and visual communication. My insights contribute to a deeper understanding of the discipline, and I frequently share my findings at academic conferences and workshops. I am dedicated to mentoring students, guiding them through the development of their portfolios and preparing them for successful careers in design. My commitment to fostering creativity and critical thinking in students has resulted in numerous graduates achieving notable success in various design roles. With a passion for visual communication and a dedication to nurturing the next generation of designers, I continue to inspire students and colleagues alike.
My research interests encompass a diverse range of areas within Graphic Design, with a particular focus on pop-up books, Urdu typography, and calligraphy. I am passionate about exploring the intersection of visual storytelling and design, especially in the context of children's literature and educational materials.
I aim to investigate how graphic design can enhance the engagement and learning experiences of children, using innovative formats like pop-up books to captivate young audiences. Additionally, I have a keen interest in the nuances of Urdu typography and calligraphy, examining how these traditional art forms can be integrated into modern design practices to preserve cultural heritage while appealing to contemporary sensibilities.
Furthermore, I am interested in the role of graphic design in social campaigns, particularly those aimed at raising awareness and promoting positive change. Through script writing and visual communication strategies, I seek to create compelling narratives that resonate with diverse audiences.
By bridging these interests, I hope to contribute to the fields of graphic design and visual communication, fostering a deeper understanding of how design can influence culture, education, and social impact.
