My name is Imaad Hakim and I am a sophomore at UNG. I was a Biology major last year and am currently a Business Management Major and am looking forward to learning a lot from working in this office. I am a very outgoing person and love spending time with friends and family. I have an eighteen-year-old brother and a twenty-seven-year-old sister. I was born in Chattanooga, TN and moved to Lawrenceville, GA when I was five. I graduated from Mountain View High School. My family is originally from Kashmir, a small state between India and Pakistan. My hobbies include working out, going out with friends, playing basketball and tennis, and traveling. I love meeting new people and am fascinated with all different cultures. I also love animals and am currently volunteering, weekly, at the TLC Humane Society.
Ever since I can remember I’ve always wanted to be a doctor. I love kids and have a certain, unexplainable passion for helping people. That drive has led me to become a pediatrician or a dentist. I have two cousins who have greatly influenced my career path. One is an interventional cardiologist and the other is a radiologist; they have both been incredibly supportive and helpful with college thus far. The reason I changed majors was because I would also like to open my own medical practice and with only a biology degree I wouldn’t get very far.
Being with University Press this year, I hope to gradually understand the marketing behind the selling and distributing of books. This field of work is completely new to me and I am looking forward to taking as much from this job as I possibly can.
