Abdul Rahman

I'm a Master's student of Energy AI at KENTECH and a Graduate Researcher at the ENVI Lab, supervised by Prof. Bumshik Lee, where I focus on generative modeling to solve real-world challenges in healthcare, autonomous systems, and multimedia. My research utilizes advanced generative frameworks to develop robust solutions for complex tasks like medical anomaly detection and high-fidelity image synthesis.

Beyond academia, I co-founded Yumkins, a food-tech startup in Pakistan, in 2022, where I led the marketing and financial operations. I now remain involved as a co-founding advisor, helping guide the brand's growth alongside my academic pursuits.

Beyond Research

Alongside research, I'm deeply interested in the startup ecosystem, particularly how early-stage companies build sustainable business models from scratch. My experience co-founding Yumkins gave me a hands-on understanding of what it takes to grow a brand from an idea to a market-ready product, and I continue to apply that mindset across the work I do.

What I genuinely enjoy is the mix of strategy, marketing, and finance that goes into building something from zero. I spend a lot of my free time digging into startup case studies, pulling apart how a company found its first customers, why a pricing model worked or didn't, what made a brand stick. New startup ideas catch my attention quickly, and I love thinking through the "what if" of them, whether or not they ever turn into anything.

If you're into research, startups, working on something, or just like talking about this stuff, I'd love to swap notes.
