I'm a 29 year young Ethiopian female looking for a potential life partner, I was born and raised in Ethiopia and have lived in and out of the US since 2011. I completed my undergrad in Economics and I'm currently pursuing a Masters in Public Policy/ International Dev't at Johns Hopkins completing in May 2019.  I'm in the field of international development and pursue my career as a passion. 

My life motto is to be of service to those around me. It is more about bringing your best and contributing positively to those around you/ being a positive force in this world. Growth (personally, spiritually, intellectually and in all lines) is a key part of my life philosophy, and is also at the centre of my relationships with people. I want to be a source of growth and peace to those around me and be with those that contribute to who I am. Other things I strive to live by include: self restraint, reason, openness and respect. 

I grew up in a large family as the youngest of 10 siblings and appreciate family ties, while I crave for and appreciate personal spaces and quiet. I keep my siblings as friends and few close friends. I lean towards introversion in that I seek quite personal time and process issues introspectively. I am far from being shy or anti social. I have limited energy for broad and frequent social engagement, and enjoy quality and one-to-one relationships and conversations.  My idea of fun is often linked to experiencing new things and rejuvenating the mind. 

I'm invested in being there for my mom and niece - my mom's satisfaction and niece's growth. I tend to be rigorous and focused in terms of my engagements, both social and professional.
