Describe your background
I was born in Islamabad, Pakistan, and so were my two younger siblings. We grew up with a nomadic lifestyle, moving every three or so years with our parents across the globe because they were diplomats. I’ve lived in eight different countries and speak three languages. My experiences abroad and at home have shaped me into the person I am today, and influenced me to see the world through a broader lens.
I have consistently been blessed with remarkable teachers who have guided and encouraged me to continue to grow and challenge myself, and to aspire to be better. It is through their investment and the passion that they have for their craft that I decided to one day become an educator myself. My love for learning, reading and the arts was a direct result of their efforts.
