What would people be surprised to know about you? 

Something people would be surprised to know about me is that I’m actually quite introverted, although typically individuals who pursue a career of working with others tend to be more social.

Name a cause you are passionate about.

One cause that I am extremely passionate about is self-development, which goes hand-in-hand with mental health.

Why did you choose MSP?

I chose to attend MSP because I aspire to gain knowledge in an environment that is close-knit, where I can get to know other genuine individuals who share the same goal as I do.

What do you want to do with your degree?

I plan to work at an Islamic institution after graduating with my master’s so that I may target Muslim individuals in need of someone with both a psychological and Islamic background.

What are you most looking forward to about your program?

I am very much looking forward to meeting new like-minded individuals and discussing our ideas to help serve the communities around us.
