I was born and raised in the Midwest. I escaped to DC for a couple years and it was amazing. I'm a surgery resident with a penchant for traveling. When not working I like to work out (CrossFit, running, yoga, climbing), cook and bake desserts for other people, read, indulge my creative side with random arts and crafts, and in general enjoy the little things in life. I probably have more hobbies than any one person should have. I am very open-minded and appreciate staying current with current events and social justice. I dabble in trying to play musical instruments but I don't see my dream of being a singer-songwriter coming true anytime in the future. 

Ethnically I am Pakistani. My dad is a psychiatrist and my mom is an office manager. I have two younger brothers, one is an orthopedic surgery resident and other is a senior in high school. Both are the best brothers a girl could ask for. I have two little cats who are totally adorable.
