Shikha Dhawan is a graduate of York University from the program of Kinesiology, where she developed an interest in physical activity. Some of her favourite activities include running, swimming, playing badminton and volleyball. Her current new interest is soccer. She is also planning to run a marathon, and is training for it.

She loves reading new books, especially fiction, feeling transformed by a good piece of literature. She also loves to eat food, especially foods from all different parts of the world. She is always planning trips to the different parts of the world.

She wants to go to grad school, but she knows that one day the world will know her for her literary talents, hoping to be a best selling author. She wants to be a part of the miss universe organization, because she believes the challenge would be good for her, and also, because she knows that if she can believe in herself enough to do well in the competition, the world is her oyster. She can do anything that she puts her mind to.

Shikha loves dancing, and although she knows she isn’t really good at it, she feels that everyone should have a space free from judgement, where they can bust out any dance moves that they prefer. She believes everyone should spend at least fifteen minutes a day, dancing, just letting loose, and giving into the urges that human beings are naturally filled with.

Shikha has always had this dream of working for Doctors without Borders, so that she can give back to the world, having had this wonderful life. Because she has had such an amazing life, filled with luxury, she believes it’s her responsibility to give back to the world, and she wishes her life to be more than a 9 to 5 trial, but instead a life, that makes a small difference, in whatever way possible.
