wants to give inspiration to more Pakistani women to come out and
represent what they believe in. She loves supporting and
empowering women; that’s what inspired her to get involved in
pageants.

too big or too small when a child can be helped. As an ombudsman

refugees with language problems, adjusting to a new culture,

she has been there, done that, and will never stop. Making a
difference is her hope and goal.
