Hello! I am Fariha, a freshman at NYU! I am studying Chemical Engineering and Philosophy. I grew up in Dhaka, Bangladesh, moved to Boston in 2014, and then moved to NYC in 2017 for college. I love living in different places, and traveling. And since I am a college student, I am broke, so I save up as much as I can from my minimum wage job to use towards traveling. I love swimming, hiking and outdoor activities.
