ABOUT ME

Came to Houston ~6yrs ago from Pakistan to do my undergrad at Rice. I am an easy going person and like to make the most of out life.

In my free time, I am usually exploring the eclectic Houston neighborhoods, coffee shops, museums, and art. I thoroughly enjoy the outdoors and being active -- working out, yoga, biking, dancing, hiking, backpacking. National parks and mountains. Continue to look for adventure with friends and loved ones.

Working as a management consultant -- enjoy the fast paced environment, driven people, and 'constant change'. Also, exploring opportunities to make this world a better place.

PHILOSOPHY

Change the world one step at a time. We all can individually make a difference. Success and happiness come from a desire to make an impact, and following through. Try hard to understand other people and their rationale.
