ABOUT ME

There is nothing like asking a best friend to fill this :)

"There is so much I can say about Tayseer! First, that i'm very glad to have met him! His willingness to help and his open mindedness towards cultures and people is what brought me to be great friends with him. Tayseer likes to take special interest in everything he pursues, whether it is for a class, helping a friend or a leisure activity. Sometimes I wish I had the dedication and time for everything like he does. He is calm, and may come across as someone shy at first. But I've not seen someone more social and involved in people and cultures. To me, Tayseer has been a good listener, communicator, nonjudgemental and just a great person to have known! I know we'll soon part ways to pursue our careers, but I will always remember him and the good times we've had!" Snigdha Pongur_March 2012
