About the host

Hosted by Ashley Akhtar and Kamal Akhtar

Host profile image
My husband and I lived in this house for over a year. We enjoyed walking to the forest park, Zoo and science center. We also enjoyed easy access to two highways (I-64 and 44). Most of the restaurants in Dogtown are not too far from our house. We both work in healthcare field, I am an OBGYN nurse practitioner and my husband is an ER nurse as well as he teaches at Goldfarb School of Nursing at Barnes-Jewish College. We just moved to St Peters and decided to share our house with other guests. We recently renovated our kitchen and had custom built cabinets by Amish and handpicked everything that was put in kitchen. We are excited to share our house with our guests.
