My name is Pardis Hashemi, and I am honored to stand before you as a participant in the Miss Middle East Pageant 2025. At 30 years old, I proudly represent my home country of Iran, and for nearly three years, I have embraced the vibrant city of Dubai as my new home, where I have navigated the challenges of living independently.
As a registered nurse, my passion lies in caring for others and making a tangible difference in their lives. My profession has not only shaped my career but has also deepened my commitment to bringing joy and peace to those around me. I believe that true fulfillment comes from creating a positive impact in the world, and I aspire to leave a legacy that inspires others to cherish kindness and compassion.
Beyond my professional life, I find solace and happiness in the beauty of greenery and the companionship of animals, especially dogs. My interests in movies, concerts, and music fuel my creativity, while my love for reading, particularly Khaled Hosseini's "A Thousand Splendid Suns," allows me to explore the depths of human experience and resilience.
My journey is driven by a desire to make my parents proud and to be remembered not just for existing, but for the joy and hope I bring into the lives of others. I am here not only to compete but to share my vision of a better world—one where empathy reigns and connections flourish.
Thank you for this opportunity to share my story, and I look forward to making a meaningful impact together.
