Aiman is deeply passionate about education, travel and the arts. An alumna of the Interlochen Arts Academy, she sings, acts, dances, plays the violin and harp. She is proficient in English, Malay, Mandarin and currently learning French. "Giving back" has always been an inherent part of Aiman's upbringing and she has taken every opportunity to do so (from setting up outreach programs in school to volunteering at Soup Kitchens and entertaining at oncology wards). Aiman is excited to compound all her interests as she devotes this year to Global Citizen Year.
