 I double majored in Accounting and Human Resource Management and am currently working as an Accountant for a pharma company.  I am a very down to earth person and value sincerity and honesty. I am humorous, fun-loving, and care very much for the company I have around me. My friends and family would say I am a good listener and I am someone that they can trust. People tend to open up to me fairly easily and I believe that is so because I have an open and charismatic personality. I have a balance of Islam, which I apply in my daily life. My religion is very important to me and I always strive to better myself as a Muslim everyday. I enjoy traveling, hiking, swimming, writing poetry, fencing, mosaic artwork, volunteering, as well as spending time outdoors.  

Poetry wise I've dabbled in spoken word poetry, which I've performed at a handful of universities. The largest crowd I've probably performed in front of was around 500 people. After college it was difficult to find time to write as much, but it is something I still enjoy doing.  Being able to get up and read your poetry in front of an audience is nerve-wrecking, but to be able to captivate an audience with your words is such a great feeling.    

I've traveled to Turkey, Morocco, England, Mexico, Canada and many domestic flights within the US.   My favorite city that I've traveled to is probably Kapadokya, Turkey.   It was a smaller city that I was able to explore with a few friends, while riding on ATV's!  The sites and history were breathtaking, the people were welcoming, and the food was some of the best food I've had.  We found a local restaurant that was run by a wonderful family.  The husband was Turkish and his wife was South African.  The food was a fusion of both Turkish and South African dishes and was amazing!  Traveling truly humbles the soul and is a great way to learn about different cultures and cuisines (huge foodie right here :) )
