Published:

I live in Portland, OR, in an old house among the trees. I grew up in Palo Alto, CA, with my parents and two older brothers. I’m very close to my family! I also grew up among my expansive Pakistani family, who all lived within 5 miles of my house. Our home was the hub for the whole family for many years because my grandma (dad’s mom) lived with us for almost my entire young life. We had a true open- door policy, with my aunts, uncles, and cousins always coming through. I have entrepreneurial siblings as well. One of my brothers owns several bars and restaurants in Palo Alto, and and my other brother produces reggae music.
