Fun Facts

The best advice Dr. Khan has ever received is “Don’t take anything for granted. Cherish every moment while you can.”

The most exotic place she has visited is Iceland, which she loves for its natural beauty and simple way of life.

Not everyone knows this about Dr. Khan, but she has snorkeled between two tectonic plates.

Dr. Khan’s guilty pleasure is ice cream. As a child, she wanted to be an astronaut because she was amazed by the beauty, mystery, and vastness of space.
