About
Born in Islamabad, Pakistan. I was brought up in a Pakistani society and grew up in their culture for the past 15 years. Due to the fact that my mother’s family is all American and fathers family is all Pakistani, I have been blessed with the opportunity to travel to and fro from Asia to America via Europe and Middle East. Spreading different aspects of my Indian heritage and gaining knowledge of different cultures is intriguing and interesting to me. Always aimed for 90 and above for each subject and was added to the Honor Roll. Took full part in competitions and events as they enhanced my social skills and helped in developing competitive skills. I fluently speak English, Urdu and Hindi. Languages in training are Spanish and French.
