Case manager and policy advocate designing pathways to justice—bridging frontline social services, legislative action, and robust civil rights protections.
I work at the intersection of civil rights, public policy, and community power. My career spans legislative offices in Congress, research at leading think tanks, national civil rights advocacy with CAIR, and frontline social services — connecting vulnerable communities to housing, healthcare, and opportunity.
As an Arab American advocate with roots in diaspora politics and transnational justice, I bring a lens shaped by lived experience and academic rigor. I hold a B.A. in History and Arabic from UCLA, studied abroad in Amman, and completed intensive Arabic immersion at Middlebury Language Schools. My research centers on diaspora surveillance, transnational repression, and the weaponization of national security frameworks to erode civil liberties.
Open to roles in civil rights advocacy, legislative affairs, policy research, and community organizing.
