Who is Abrar?

I'm a software engineer, educator, and systems thinker passionate about EdTech. I believe education is the highest leverage problem we can solve. As a polymath, I bring together diverse skills—from programming and 3D modeling to game design and learning science—to build immersive learning experiences that actually work.

A T-Shaped Polymath

My diverse skillset converges to make me uniquely suited for building EdTech products. I go deep in engineering—programming, web development, interactive systems, 3D modeling, and game design. But I also reach broadly across education, UX design, psychology, writing, product thinking, carpentry, arts & craft, and business.

This T-shaped approach means I don't just code—I understand learning science, user experience, and how to build systems that scale. I can prototype in VR, design interfaces, write documentation, and think strategically about product. For EdTech, this convergence is essential.
