An aspiring minimalist, an early riser, and not much of a social media guy–but don’t let that scare you off! I can woo you with amazing stir-fried mushrooms with your choice of veggies but if you have some cooking chops, I’m open for a lesson or two. We could pair a cooking lesson with some SNL, Suits, Stephen Colbert or any political satire show. Bonus points if you’re a good cook AND health-conscious.

I’m a practicing Sunni Muslim and meeting another practicing Sunni is important. My job is consulting in the high-tech sector, and I enjoy what I do. Additionally, I also enjoy participating in the startups scene outside of daily work. I’m an ambivert who can be social but values quiet and alone time too. I’m also a family-oriented guy, looking for an honest,  and thoughtful partner—traits you can expect in return. Self-improvement is crucial for me –hope it is for you too—so you can find me exploring new classes at the gym, taking online courses,  reading  books (“I Can’t Make This Up”, "Barking Up the Wrong Tree", "A thousand splendid suns"), or listening to  rahat fateh ali khan, atif aslam, one republic and chainsmokers. Do you have any musical or podcast suggestions? In case you can’t tell yet, I like to expand my horizons ?.

I’m a pretty frugal guy (who doesn’t love hunting down deals?), so if Groupon is your friend, let’s compete and see who can come up with the best deal.
So, if you’re up for intellectually stimulating conversations about Suits (the TV show, not the clothing ?), geeking out over a motivational podcast (“This American Life”, “How I Built This”, “Muslim Central”)  and don’t mind eating quinoa or drinking almond milk occasionally, we might just be a perfect match. Let’s grab a cup of chai and see if we can go beyond that  ?.
