Obsessed with learning about everything humanity has created into the world; as small as implmeneting a new Recipe System (this is what I call my fad diets) or big, like philosophizing & learning about the state of things with my community & friends at a park, museum, or local bar. I am blessed to be able to take care of animals - my dog & my cats, who have kept me VERY active, and have taught me about non-verbal communication, temperament, respect, and space. They are also my reason for not consuming meat. Moreover, I believe healthy connections, learning, and broadening our communities can (and should) go hand in hand with technology & social connections. Social Media can be that - but it hasn't always been about social connections, at least not lately. Carving out ways to adapt the technology available to us - large social media platforms, AI, streaming, gaming - to serve each other is a possibility I strive for in my work.
Born in Dhaka, Bangladesh, I immigrated to Los Angeles, California at the age of 4 years old - and have been raised and molded by this city ever since. I grew up in Inglewood, went to High School in Compton, went to university in the Inland Empire, and have spent my formative 20's and 30's in the cultural hubs of the city - Koreatown, Silverlake, West Hollywood, Downtown, Glendale, Highland park.
