Rukhsana Badar - N.A.Badar
I am a patron of creativity. I have been scribbling and doodling since I was 6. My poems and short stories were regularly published in school and youth magazines.
After acquiring a degree in Architecture I have turned my passion to designing, creating houses, spaces and furniture. I indulge in my love for crafts, working meticulously with my hands to make greeting cards, lamps, embroidery and a lot more. Each new day brings with it an idea for a new project. If only a day had more than 24 hours...
My other job is as a full time mom to two children.
