It takes two to tango

Although, i'm very skeptical about online match-making, i thought i'd give it a shot, as it seems like a decent alternative to the so called "aunty- match making". Who knows lightening might strike or I might be fooled by randomness? Please read my profile carefully, because that prevents confusion and misunderstanding down the road. To start off i am not here to make friends or for casual dating etc. , so only respond if you are serious. I was born in Pakistan, and grew up in Africa and the States. I am working as a Financial Analyst for an e-education company based out of Washington DC. I am also pursuing the Chartered Financial Analyst, CFA designation. My career is very important to me and i work extra hard at it. Religion is important to me to the extent that it shapes my identity and character. I am more of a spiritual academic of Islam and not very religious. I balance my work life with interests including, running, racquet sports, listening to music,investing, cooking, working out, hanging out with friends and family, eating out, traveling and enjoying life. The person i desire to be with should be independent, goal-centric, value-oriented and above all cultured. She should be my best friend as well. If you're out there I look forward to hearing from you! Best.
