Hi there, I’m Sehrish :)

If you were to ask me on any given day how I'm doing, my response would probably be "just vibin!" I like to approach life with this kind of flexibility. Willing to try new things, I like to let my curiosity flow. I am also guided in life by my passion for gaining knowledge and by the values taught to me by my Muslim parents, who I am very close with. I love my mama and baba and younger siblings with all my heart, and I am blessed with their love and support for me. 

I'm proud of my Pakistani and Punjabi heritage and consider it an important part of who I am, but I also recognize the American in me. I strive for a blend of tradition and modern in my worldview, philosophy, and overall being. To me, balance is the key to success.

My strength for learning, writing, and analytical thinking has led me to my current major and minor: Cellular and Molecular Biology and Linguistics. After earning my bachelors, I'm looking to work with a biotech company that specializes in genetics, and to continue my education. InshAllah that is the plan, but Allah knows best. 

A person who values deep connections and meaningful conversations, I tend to be quiet initially, but once I become more comfortable I can be pretty talkative! My family (especially my dad!) can attest that many a time I have been seen asking questions and sometimes engaging in playful debates haha! On the whole, I am a pensive and analytical person, which means that I spend time thinking about the world and my role in it, especially how I can expand my perspective and grow in all aspects of life. I enjoy setting goals for myself and working on new projects, which is fun but can also be frustrating, given my tendency to be a perfectionist. 

In terms of hobbies and activities, I love reading books, listening to music, writing poems, trying new foods, spending time with loved ones, learning new languages, and laughing at funny memes. I also love exploring new places both near and far: Allah’s Earth is full of treasures that I hope to see. InshAllah, my hope is to find a partner who is intelligent, loving, compassionate, fun, open-minded, and is close with their family: someone who I can share my hopes, values, dreams, and life with. :)
