I was born in South Africa and moved to Canada with my family when I was 8 years old. I studied psychology at the University of Regina and after two years of teaching in rural Québec, I decided to go back to school and study French in Montreal. 

I love traveling and exploring the world around me, be it overseas or the next city over. I’ve visited almost every province in Canada and a few US states, amongst other countries over seas. You don’t have to go far to explore the world around you. 

I’ve been told that I have a sunny disposition and I can always be found smiling. I enjoy laughing and having a good time. I strongly believe that in life you either have a good time or a good story so you might as well enjoy it. I’m opening minded and if given the opportunity to try something new, I’m usually interested and more than willing. 

I come from a mixed family and background with many of my family members around the world. 

I'm not particularly religious, nor am I overly practicing. I occasionally pray, fast, and celebrate Eid. My parents, on the other hand, are practicing and are involved with the Muslim community in Regina.
