In her spare time, she is a competitive Olympic Weightlifter and was Crossfit Level I certified. Her experiences weightlifting in an effort to compete at U.S. national competitions led her to advocate to compete in clothing that adheres to religious codes, opening the door for women from cultures around the world to compete and move beyond preconceived notions of gender, race, and religion. She represented Pakistan as the first female at the international level to compete wearing hijab at the 2011 World Weightlifting Championships.

Description I have on Minder:
Please read about me & my age before swiping as that will save us time. 
I don’t have a specific age range & care more about someone’s maturity level, our connection & compatible stages of life. 

Some about me:
I participate in social causes especially those who are marginalized in society. 

One of my hobbies is Olympic weightlifting (which also ended up becoming my contribution to change in this world) 

I have a PhD in engineering, work in machine learning/data science &
volunteer in data for good projects. 

I practice singing, read (non fiction, some fiction) & enjoy learning (language, skill building like improv), the outdoors, traveling & food.

I try my best to practice Islam & continue growing as a Muslim .  

In a potential future spouse, I appreciate honesty, a good heart, faith, respect, support & a witty humor. 

I took a 3 year break from these apps due to mental & emotional drain. InshAllah 2020 is my year ? & Allah continues to guide & bless me & all of us.
