  Asalamalaikum! My name is Sumbel Zeb, and I was born and raised in the Dallas/Ft.Worth area. I have a B.A. in Political Science from SMU and I just recently completed my M.S. in Interdisciplinary Studies, with a focus in Public Administration, Political Science, and Journalism.  I hope to eventually work for a government agency or NGO. I’m currently applying for jobs and interviewing. My past work experience has been with the International Rescue Committee, the American Arbitration Association, and with various law firms.  I also attended law school for a year, but ultimately decided that it wasn’t for me. 
 I’m interested in helping others/ social justice issues. I care about Islam and my heritage. In my free time I enjoy going out with friends and family, movies, cooking, reading, travel, volunteering, and drawing. I really enjoy spending time with both children and the elderly. I’m 29 and I’m 5’6. I like to listen to NPR and learn about different cultures, history, and about Islam.
My father’s name is Mohiudin Zeb, he is a Cardiologist, and my mother is Nasreen Zeb, MBBS. They are originally from Lahore, and have been in the US since the 70s. I have an older brother, who did his B.A. from Baylor, and his Masters in Islamic Studies. He is the Director of Muslim Life at Duke University. I also have a younger sister named who is in Medical school in South Carolina, and my little brother is currently doing his B.S. at UTD.
