    ABOUT THE AUTHORS

    Zareen Khan: Born in Karachi, Zareen specializes in Pakistani and North Indian food while celebrating the cuisine of the Memons, an ethnic community hailing from Gujarat, India, and Karachi, Pakistan, to which her family belongs. Zareen started her restaurant business at 43, shortly after winning her battle with oral cancer in 2012. Now a celebrated restaurateur, Zareen has a global following for her eponymous Bay Area restaurants.

    Umair Khan: Also born in Karachi, Umair co-founded Zareen’s with his wife. He is also founder of Folio3 Software, a global tech services firm, founding partner at Mentors Fund, an early stage tech investment firm, and a visiting professor at UC Berkeley.

    Zareen and Umair have been longstanding and dedicated supporters of the Institute, playing a crucial role in advancing its mission, particularly in the development and promotion of Urdu and Pakistan-related programs.
