Hi there and salaams! My name is Jafreen. I'm a Jersey girl and honorary New Yorker, despite what actual New Yorkers will try to tell you. I graduated from Columbia in 2007 with a B.A. in Political Economics and from NYU in 2011 with an M.A. in Global History. I've worked my entire career in the non-profit sector, partly to try and make the world a better place and mostly so that I can wear jeans to the office. Outside of work, you can find me reading or spending time with friends/family. I inherited from my mother a love of hosting and entertaining, and there is nothing more comforting to me than a small dinner party with a group of close friends. I try to travel often, and my ideal vacation is a few days exploring a new city on foot followed by a restorative few days on a beach. I'm a sucker for cheesy Bollywood movies, expensive gym classes, and pretty much any type of dessert. If we chat, be sure to ask me about the time I chased Bill Clinton down a New York City street block!
