Introduction
As a lifelong educator, researcher, and technologist, I’ve always thrived at the intersection of innovation and pedagogy. Over the years, my journey has evolved into three interconnected passions: designing impactful solutions, illustrating complex ideas through technology, and creating courses that empower learners worldwide. Here’s a glimpse into how these roles intertwine in my career.
1. Designer: Crafting Digital and Technical Solutions
Design, for me, is about solving problems with creativity and precision. My work spans:
- Web Design & Development: Building over 15 websites, including mohamediqbal.in, pallipurath.in, and e-commerce platforms like iqsoft.in. Using CMS platforms like WordPress, Drupal, and Laravel, I blend aesthetics with functionality.
- Software Development: Authoring 27+ shareware and commercial tools, such as MedExpert (a medical diagnostic expert system), Stirling Machine Optimization software, and SimHydrate for simulating gas hydrate dynamics. Each tool reflects a fusion of coding expertise (PHP, Python, Java) and user-centric design.
- Engineering Design: Leading projects like AutoLISP satellite dish design for ISRO and FEM analysis of railway components, where technical illustration meets mechanical innovation.
2. Illustrator: Visualizing Ideas Through Technology
While my work leans technical, “illustration” takes shape in translating abstract concepts into tangible models:
- CAD & Simulation: Designing cryogenic equipment, rocket nozzles, and wind turbines using AutoCAD, ANSYS, and MATLAB. These projects are essentially technical illustrations that bridge theory and real-world application.
- Fractals & Graphics: Developing Patint, a fractal pattern generator, to explore the artistry in mathematical patterns. Tools like Graf (scientific graphing software) further demonstrate how data visualization can simplify complex ideas.
- Educational Visuals: Creating course materials and simulations for topics like AI, robotics, and sustainable energy, ensuring learners grasp intricate subjects through clear, visual narratives.
3. Creator of Courses: Empowering the Next Generation
Education is my cornerstone. As Senior Director of Skill Development at Digital Bridge International, I channel my expertise into building transformative learning experiences:
- AI & Tech Courses: Completing certifications like IBM Applied AI Professional and Autonomous Navigation for Flying Robots fuels my course content. I design curricula that demystify AI, robotics, and programming for students and professionals.
- Workshops & Seminars: Leading sessions like “Innovative Teaching Techniques” and “Reshaping Education for the Digital Era” to equip educators with modern tools.
- Global Reach: As an online instructor at platforms like Docsta (Dubai), I create courses accessible to learners across borders, emphasizing practical skills in web development, automation, and ethical hacking.
Why I Do It
My drive stems from a belief that technology, education, and creativity are pillars of progress. Whether designing a website, modeling a sustainable energy system, or teaching AI fundamentals, the goal remains the same: to inspire innovation and solve real-world challenges.

Final Thoughts
From coding fractal algorithms to guiding PhD scholars, every project is a step toward a smarter, more connected world. As I often say: “Teach without hindrance, learn without limits.” Let’s keep creating, illustrating, and educating—one innovation at a time.
