As salaam alaikum. I am a family-oriented woman of an empathetic nature: warm, sincere, and deeply introspective. Though friendly, I am also a reserved and patient listener. I was fortunate to be raised with moral values that are tied to my practice and heritage; blessings that I will safeguard and nurture in all who I love.

From my mother, I grew an abiding respect for people and the world around me; ever so curious, ever bright. I was taught that learning never ends. I fell in love with biology, the study of life, and saw Allah swt in the tiniest of organisms, embedded in our DNA, in everything: He who has created the most perfect of imperfections, souls housed within bodies capable of extraordinary change and kept alive with daily miracles.

I know wisdom comes from any source. I believe that fundamentally a scientist is anyone who asks a question and, in seeking answers, understands truth as a process unending. I am here, at this intersection between cultures, aware of their worst; yet, I wish to live a life of their best.

I am looking for my best friend, a humsafar: positive, good, and kind. We will share this journey in love and in understanding of one another.
