‟ I have known Rizwan since 2020 in the capacity of one of the course instructors and fellow researcher. I noticed his sincere motivation in acquiring substantial knowledge in Machine learning during the course work, which ultimately took a solid shape after he joined our research group. He showed profound dedication, hardworking attitude and excellent research capabilities in his way to co-author several publications, one of which was principally authored by him. His development skills cover a wide variety of range, starting from traditional programming languages to web development and finally to recent machine learning tools including major applications used for implementing deep learning-based solutions.

Founder of Itsfoss

‟ Rizwan is passionate about software development and likes to contribute to open source projects.
A self-learned person, Rizwan developed a few open source projects in the Linux domain. This included a custom Linux distributions based on Arch Linux. While new Linux users are afraid of even installing Arch, Rizwan created his own distro based on it. And all that when he was still a student.
This shows his passion for open source and the ability to learn and work on his own. This is an essential quality for a programmer.
Wish him good luck for his future projects. ”
