• I’m a first-generation immigrant. I immigrated from Bangladesh to the U.S.A at the age of 4.5. I learned English as an ESL/ELL student. I speak two languages fluently: Bengali and English. And I am trying to improve my Spanish.

• I have lived in 5 different states and attended 9 different schools. I am an expert new girl.

• I am a recovering social media marketing director. In 2008, I had my first social media marketing role. Afterwhich, I launched the social media and community programs for ModCloth, JustFab, Fabletics, and ShoeDazzle.

• A grade school guidance counselor told me I would never be as strong in English as I was in Math because English is my second language. Lucky for me, I only listened to adults 50% of the time. As soon as I could put together sentences, I never stopped writing.

• Sharing my culture, heritage, and religion as a part of the American story is important to me. Currently, I share my Muslim mommy experience on IslamiMommy.

• If you enjoy laughing at yourself, we will probably be friends. :)
