As-Salaam-Alaikum,

My name is Anila Niaz, and I am 29 years old.  I am an English and Special Education teacher at York Alternative High School and a PhD student in Education Policy, Organization & Leadership at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a concentration in Human Resource Development/Learning Design and Education Administration. I am also a professional certified coach through International Coach Federation .

Most of my time is spent working and focusing on my studies. As for hobbies, I enjoy spending time reading, coaching at  my workplace,  visiting coffee shops, and spending time with family and close friends. I enjoy going on long walks and contemplating about life and my purpose.  I would consider myself fairly simple and I prefer someone similar to me.
