I'm Nadiyah and I am currently studying at Richmond, the American International University. I am majoring in International History. I chose this major because of my interest in my A-level history course. Before this, I studied history at GCSE level.
Throughout my time in education, I have always participated in many different extracurricular activities. These include: leadership programs, app development courses, academic oral speaking and debating unions. These helped me to develop many life skills such as communication and leadership. I have also volunteered for charity during my spare time whilst studying at sixth form. This was, in my opinion, a useful way to give back to my community.
As for my hobbies, I enjoy reading immensely and you can find me almost always reading at home. I prefer to read fantasy and adventure novels as well as comics. Also, I like to bake and cook for my family. I enjoy experimenting with different dishes and trying new things. Additionally, I try to master some traditional dishes to impress my family. One more thing that I like to do is knit as it helps me de-stress and find some peace of mind. I like to knit little items of clothing for my niece as well.
The reason why I chose to write for Her Campus was because I wanted to improve and build upon the life skills that I already have. I wanted to share my passion for life with the readers and to hopefully help entertain and inform people. I enjoy working on my writing skills and reading my fellow writers' brilliant pieces.
