Bobby Umar's Background 

The Trusted Voice: Tell us about your parents, what were they like? \

Bobby Umar: My dad is an accountant. My mom is a homemaker. They were born in Pakistan and moved here before I was born. So I was the first person in my family born in Canada. They were both very social people, loved to laugh, and my mom was a nurturing type. I took all these qualities from them. They did all they could to make sure I never had to worry about money and encouraged me to do well in school. I even got to skip a grade because of my success. 

 

TTV: What was your dream as a kid?

B: I had many. They included being a hockey player, being a singer or musician, but also being an astronaut.
