I was born and raised in Qatar to immigrant parents. My father had a 30-year career with the state-run steel company, while my mother is a homemaker. Growing up in a multicultural environment and later living in Canada has given me a broad perspective on life and different cultures. I earned a degree in Engineering Technology from McMaster University in Canada and have since worked in a variety of professional roles, including as an Automation Technician and an Electronic Medical Record Analyst. I currently live in Bangladesh and have spent the past two years working remotely as a medical scribe for an orthopedic surgeon based in Michigan. I am aiming to pursue a masters in health informatics.
