Muna

She/Her Muna and Faizah have been besties ever since Muna forced Faizah to go to a Halloween party. Even though Faizah dislikes New Jersey, she would drive hours just to see Muna for a few minutes. Muna is incredible at roller skating, which Faizah has yet to do with her!
Rachida

She/Her Rachida is one of the smartest people you will ever meet! When Faizah met Rachida, they couldn’t stop talking about biology for, what seemed like, hours!

Ask Tee about their Tarot skills!

He/Him I met James while interning at NASA. We got paired into an office together where no real work was done for weeks. We've been office mates, to roommates in a bug infested basement with odd housemates, to living in a crazy person's home, to adventures all over the DMV and east coast. It's been a long story since seeing him discover salt and pepper, to him becoming a man and soon to be married.

He/Him Fateful Encounter: My first encounter with James was like a dream. While working at NASA, I would often go around my building looking for a new spot to work or to lay my head. James shared an office with a friend of mine. One day, when they were not around, I snuck into their office & surprisingly fell asleep. My friend, James & two others were the first I saw when I woke up. I’m sure this was awkward for everyone; Instead of addressing the awkwardness, I DOUBLED DOWN! I started talking to them as if I were their co-worker who was always there, just hiding in the wall waiting to be noticed. In short, A dream, a nights …. day's rest is how I met James.

He/Him GREETINGS!! 🖖 I’m Riley! I’m a big nerd and don’t know how to keep my mouth shut about it! Faizah and I met my freshman year of college but her senior year. Her and a few other ex RAs groomed me into being an RA (not really groomed me but became some of my besties and inspired me). Faizah has been a true friend ever since we met and I’ve been rooting for her and James ever since!

He/Him I know James through our college club called RFH (Rensselaer Formula Hybrid). The first time I ever noticed his existence is the morning of our freshman year's competition. I see a poor little boy holding a schematic and a bunch of wires and trying to wire up the entire vehicles before the sun comes up. I offered help to him but he told me he doesn’t even know what this schematic is saying as well… so gg (good game). Ever since then we were in a lot of classes together and had a lot of fun. We slept in the truck during competition, bought bubble tea on campus but needed to bring our own sugar, watched a movie in the cinema and our final got cancelled half way through the movie so the second half of the movie just got infinity better, and etc.
