I'm Zeena (middle name is Zaynab which is what my family and Arab friends call me), and I'm currently a family medicine resident living and working in the suburbs of Seattle. I was born and raised in southern California, but have also lived in Brisbane, Australia as well as New Orleans.

I am a travel-obsessed, fun-loving person. I have one cat, love Disneyland and Disney/Pixar movies, and enjoy trying new things. I love pop music and going to concerts, staying in and watching Netflix, and getting together with friends.

I am not a very religious person in terms of practicing (I rarely pray, I try to fast during Ramadan when possible, I don't eat pork but do eat non-halal beef/lamb/chicken, I don't wear hijab, etc) but the values of Islam are something I carry with me, especially having compassion for the less fortunate and just being a good person.

I would say that I am open-minded and politically liberal. I am also a feminist who firmly believes in equality and partnership in relationships and life in general. I am looking for someone who feels that a marriage is built on trust and equality. I hope that my partner will be my best friend and supporter in life, and is someone who values family and loyalty.
