When I’m not writing or teaching, I enjoy watching film and studying Semitic languages, especially Arabic and its morphology. I like beautiful buildings. iPhone grade photos of my favorites to date, below!

I share life with an educator (who is also a henna artist). We spend much of our time chasing our toddler.

My family hails from all over the Subcontinent and Greater Khorasan. I was born and raised in Houston, Texas.
