I am a PhD researcher and academic research writer specializing in literature reviews, research papers, research proposals, thesis and dissertation support, academic editing, and evidence-based research.
I am currently pursuing a PhD at Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS) and hold Master's-level academic training in English and Political Science from Forman Christian College and University. My academic background and research experience allow me to work effectively across humanities, social sciences, education, political science, and interdisciplinary research.
I can support you with:
Academic and literature research
Literature reviews and systematic source evaluation
Research papers and academic reports
Research proposals and research documentation
Thesis and dissertation support
Academic editing, proofreading, and improving clarity
Research methodology and academic structure
Qualitative and quantitative research
SPSS-based data analysis and interpretation
Descriptive statistics, correlation, regression, reliability analysis, and ANOVA
APA, Harvard, and other academic referencing styles
Political, social, and educational research
Evidence-based analytical writing
My research and freelance experience includes work in English, history, political science, education, psychology, social sciences, public policy, and related interdisciplinary areas. I have worked on literature reviews, research papers, research proposals, academic editing, proofreading, source evaluation, referencing, research documentation, and analytical reports.
My research interests and previous research topics include education and educational technology, AI in education, public policy, gender and society, child protection, violence and social issues, digital privacy, political and social issues, Pakistan and international affairs, and comparative research.
I take a research-first approach to every project. I carefully understand the research question, identify relevant and credible sources, evaluate evidence, organize information logically, and present the findings in clear academic language. I focus on accuracy, proper referencing, logical argumentation, academic structure, and professional presentation rather than simply adding words or mechanically rewriting existing text.
If you need help with a literature review, research paper, research proposal, thesis chapter, dissertation project, academic report, research methodology, dataset analysis, or academic editing, I can provide structured and research-based support tailored to your requirements.
My goal is simple: to help you turn complex research questions, evidence, and data into clear, well-structured, academically sound work.
Send me your research requirements, topic, or project details, and we can discuss the best way to approach it.

With 3 years of research experience, an MPhil in Social Sciences, and a strong background as a research writer and analyst, I support clients with academic research, literature reviews, policy research, qualitative analysis, report writing, manuscript editing, thesis support, and evidence-based content development.
I specialize in transforming complex research material into well-organized, logically structured, citation-supported, and publication-ready outputs. Whether you need a literature review, research proposal, academic article, policy brief, thesis/dissertation support, qualitative research summary, systematic review assistance, or professional report, I focus on clarity, accuracy, strong argument flow, proper referencing, and clean academic presentation.
I use Zotero for reference management and citation organization, and I can assist with APA, Harvard, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, and Vancouver referencing styles.

I have access to scientific literature resources through PASTIC โ Pakistan Scientific and Technological Information Centre. PASTICโs National Science Reference Library provides print and electronic information resources, and the HEC Digital Library is also accessible at PASTIC. This supports stronger literature searches, citation tracking, and evidence-based writing across social sciences and interdisciplinary research areas.
I can search, review, and synthesize literature from major academic and social science databases, including:
