Hey there! ‘Shoma’ means ‘beautiful’ and ‘river’ in Hindi. ‘Victorious’ in Arabic/Bengali (not really sure what the original intent behind my name was). Neuroscience/political science undergrad. Jersey roots, but consider myself to be a melting-pot with diverse upbringing (travel now quite often too). Youngest of siblings, have a slew of nieces and nephews, closest friends are one of my greatest gifts/can trust to always have my back and have known most of them since childhood. As still a doctor-in-training, I will be working long hours for the next ~3 years (not by choice) and tied geographically. But I consider my profession to be also a calling and am really grateful for the journey. 

My ideal significant-other-- Someone who lives his life with courage, tolerant, a thinker, liberal-progressive. Not afraid to wear his heart on his sleeve. A professional in any field, invested in his career. Can appreciate the very simple things in life.  Genuinely caring and protective of others. A good friend and will see each other as complete equals, in matters of both head and heart.
