I was born and raised in Texas, spending my youth in the greater Dallas area. I did my bachelor's and master's degree at the University of Texas, Dallas. If there was one sport I could name my favorite, it would be basketball. Me and my younger brother are huge fans of the Houston Rockets. I have always been a regular visitor of the Plano Islamic Center, and I have fond memories there of the many activities I participated in. I am dedicated to serving the Muslim community, and still try, within the best of my abilities, to remain involved in their youth activities.
