Duty title: Production Supervisor

Why I joined the Air Force: I joined the Air Force for multiple reasons. First and foremost, I joined to experience the military life. The place where I was born and raised not too many people get to experience life like the military does. I wanted to travel around the world, and I got a chance to do that while being stationed at Ghedi. Another reason I joined was to make something of myself and to do something my mother would be proud of.

Family:
I just recently married and we are expecting our first child in September 2010. I have one older brother, Isaac, and our mother, Parveen.

Hobbies: My number-one hobby is sports, whether it be playing or watching. I am a diehard Knicks fan. I also enjoy working out and listening to music.

Favorite aspect of my job:
My favorite part would be when customers finish their meal and come up to say it was the best meal they have had.

Most memorable Air Force experience: I do not have any specific memorable experience, but my deployments to Qatar, Iraq and Afghanistan were great experiences.

Why I make responsible choices: I strive to live up to the faith that Air Force has placed in me by representing my country with Honor.
