I AM...
- A proud dual citizen of Pakistan and the United States
- Thankful for my loving family and supportive husband
- A big fan of game shows with a life goal of being a contestant on Wheel of Fortune
- A former runner; my races were the 800 meters and 1,500 meters
- Always planning my next travel destination. Next up: Banff, Alberta.
- Obsessed with pens, and have a souvenir pen from every city, state, or country I have visited
- A self-taught cook who specializes in cross-cultural fusion cuisine
- A night owl, with my best ideas coming to me at all hours
- Passionate about working hard while also making time to provide mentorship and community service
- Still trying to explore (and eat my way through) all of Chicago’s 77 neighborhoods
