Q What are you passionate about?
A I’ m an art-oriented person. I’ m passionate about photography, cinematography, theatre and music. I love anything that’ s related to art. I’ m also very interested in community service and I try to link those two together.
Q How’ s art and photography a vessel for community service?
A Photography captures a moment through the lens. I put myself in those situations and document it. It is a way for me to document my experience and share a message.
Q What concerns you?
A Poverty is a big concern for me. This realization came after visiting Nepal. I’ m involved in MUN( Model United Nations) and throughout the years I’ ve always liked to be in the Human Rights Committee because I feel it is the most interesting. I live in Doha and feel blessed, and then there are people who are somewhere else that are exactly the same as me, but live with many struggles. It shows me not to take things for granted. If poverty was to be fixed, then that would fix all the other problems we have in the world. Most of these problems start from the scarcity of enough income.
Q Where did you first here about problems in Nepal?
A It started from a QLC( Qatar Leadership Conference) the year Peter Dalglish presented about trips to Nepal. I wanted to do it, but I didn’ t know a concrete way. I usually visit family during short school breaks. I emailed Peter Dalglish and he sent me to the company that runs the trip.
