I'm family-oriented, traditional and laid back... I read a lot, love to laugh and help others. I don't take things too seriously and will try (almost) anything at least once. I enjoy going to the movies, trying new restaurants, love to travel, photography, baking, hiking, and any type of outdoor activity. I also won’t take for granted a simple night in, cooking or on the couch, having a meaningful conversation and just watching TV. I enjoy volunteering in my spare time, around the community and at our local masjid — I believe that we should be the change we wish to see in people and the world around us. Professionally, I'm in IT and really enjoy what I do. However, I'm more goal oriented than career oriented. I like taking classes on an array of different subjects/hobbies, and always want to be learning/growing. There are too many things to experience in this short lifetime... I like to try new things, want see new places and travel to the hidden corners of the world, inshaAllah! Overall, I try to achieve a balance in deen and dunya, and would want to see the same from my significant other, inshaAllah.
