I have spent my childhood in Bangladesh. My family consists of my parents and a younger brother. I have specialized in songs written by Noble Laureate Rabindranath Tagore – a Bengali poet and love singing. In addition to singing, my interests include reading novels, watching movies/documentaries, campaigning, getting actively involved in campus organizations, etc. I have completed my primary and middle school education in Bangladesh. I have completed my secondary education in United World College of the Atlantic in Wales, United Kingdom where I earned my International Baccalaureate Diploma. Currently, I am pursuing my Bachelors in Government (Political Science) and Economics in Smith College, Massachusetts. Besides that, I am currently working as a House Community Advisor – liaison between the student body and the Residence Life staff - at Smith College. Moreover, I will be serving as the president of EKTA – the South Asian Association of Smith College - for the academic year 2015-2016. If I were to talk about a specific past experience that had an impact on me, I would talk about the fundraiser that we – the members of EKTA – organized to raise funds for the construction 141 schools in Pakistan in collaboration with the 141 Schools organization in Pakistan.
