Both my parents are originally from India, with my dad having been here since high school. I’m a very family-oriented person and spend a lot of time with my relatives. 

I was born and raised in the DC Metro area and have been here ever since. I have a Bachelor's and Master's in accounting/finance and am a CPA. I currently work at an accounting firm in Virginia. 

I would consider myself driven and ambitious. However, I’m willing to be flexible in terms of work. Ultimately, my plan is to work on a reduced schedule or from home. 

I love to watch and play all kinds of sports. Up until college, sports were a significant part of my life, as I had to travel for various tournaments. I don’t play organized sports as much anymore, but I try to be outdoors as much as I can. I also love to travel. Most of my vacations have been to national parks, or any area where you can hike. Despite being so heavily involved in sports growing up, I’m very much into my culture. I’m proud of my heritage. 

I also love to cook, and by that I mean, having cooking competitions with my siblings and friends. Thanksgiving ends up being an all out event at our house. 

Although, I don’t wear hijab, I pray 5 times a day, fast, and am a pretty conservative practicing Muslim. I would want the same from my spouse as well. 

I'm more into tv shows than movies, but who doesn't love Harry Potter?
