My name is Shafkath Ahmed and I am a proud resident of Queens, New York. I’ve spent most of my life here, learning the tools of the trade about life. I am an avid fan of the NBA but I am an even bigger fan of Steve Nash, the greatest point guard to grace the game of basketball. I love pizza, in fact, I’m eating a slice right now! Aside from basketball and pizza I am a huge fan of music. I jam to all types of music from hip-hop, to rock, jazz, soul, pop, blues and any other genre under the Sun. My favorite album is Illmatic, by Nas. Nas takes hip-hop to a whole new level with his revolutionary lyrics depicting life in Queensbridge (Queensbridge happens to be in Queens). Music helps me get along for most of my day. Breaking Bad, which is my favorite show, helps me get through the long nights of procrastination. Lastly, I have a tight knit group of friends which I always try to maintain close contact with. We do virtually everything together and love exploring new places.
