Ariba Hashmi is a second year student in the Osteopathic Medicine program at NSU. She was born in Karachi, Pakistan and immigrated to Canada in 1996. She now lives in Florida with her family. Ariba graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2015, studying Biomedical Science and Creative writing. While pursuing creative writing, she adapted some of her personal experiences and stories into children’s cartoon books which she hopes to someday publish.

Talk Description

Hashmi offers her experience on how small things impact life, through a coming of age story told through cartoon illustrations. In her talk, she portrays the circumstances leading a space alien to explore a new planet and adapt to a world outside of his comfort zone; highlighting how the unfortunate things that “just happen” play a larger role in the grand scheme of things. This seemingly fictional alien tale offers a universally relatable message.
