Building on Common Ground
I am a Muslim American committed to contributing to an intelligent conversation on religion and religious life in America. I was born and raised in New York and have studied Islam academically. I can talk to a wide variety of audiences from a wide variety of perspectives. I work with communities and organizations on being religiously literate, taking differences seriously and productively, and increasing programmatic impact.
