Hi! My name is Nida. I was born and raised in Long Island, NY (about a 30 minute train ride from the city!). My parents are originally from Pakistan. I am the oldest of 4 and I love spending time with them in my spare time. I went to college in Massachusetts and medical school in NY. I'm currently a 2nd year psychiatry resident and absolutely love my job! After work, I love going on long outdoor runs and reading books (I'm always looking for recommendations!). Some random things I love are good chai, freshly baked chocolate chip cookies, new books and my 5 year old cat Mano :) I also love to write and my goal is to have my writing published one day. I value growth and always push myself to grow towards my best self, whether it's religiously, spiritually, academically, etc. My family and friends describe me as empathetic, thoughtful and easy to talk to. Looking forward to getting to know you!
