I am originally from the states (DC-Maryland-Virginia) but recently moved to Qatar doing research as a PhD student in Education City. I will be here for 1-3 years depending on the trajectory of my research. I am an engineer by profession. However, I really love learning about different patterns and phenomena occurring in the world through reading books and discussing current events with friends and contemporaries. As a result, I have been fascinated with education methodologies both through the secular and religious sciences. 

In my spare time, I love staying active and I am constantly searching for new things to do. I am currently trying to improve my Arabic and Bengali while I break from my PhD work. I would love to travel more when I have the time and resources but for now, sightseeing and experiencing a new place and culture has been an apt and refreshing substitute. I am looking to get married soon, before I finish my PhD inshallah. I would love to share my personal experiences with someone that I hope to respect, love, and cherish one day.
