I’m born and raised in Chicago. I’m currently a high school English Teacher,  and also pursuing my PhD in Human Resource Development and Learning Design.  I’m Pakistani, and I speak Urdu fluently. I’m very family-oriented and appreciate my cultural roots. I’m more introverted and prefer to be around my immediate  family and close circle of friends. Trust and respect are very important for me in any relationship. I also enjoy personal & spiritual  development  podcast/YouTube videos and am an avid reader of many self-help books. I  have also completed professional coaching school (holistic life & career coaching).
