Philosophy/Pre-Law📚

An ambitious scholar, I am currently pursuing a BA in Philosophy at the University of California, Riverside. My academic journey also includes AA degrees in Philosophy and Natural Science from Mt. San Antonio College. I am an inquisitive philosopher, reflected by my multiple publications on topics such as human nature, self-deception, and the essence of reality.

Complementing my theoretical knowledge, I have accumulated significant practical experience. Currently, I am honing my skills in legislative research and policy drafting as a Congressional Office Intern for Congressman Mark Takano. Prior to this, I served at the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) where I contributed to legal research and policy statement drafting. This practical exposure provides a valuable balance to my academic pursuits.

Beyond academia and professional roles, I am committed to community service. I hold prominent positions in various student organizations, including Public Relations Coordinator & President for the Muslim Student Association at UC Riverside, and the Board of Trustees Student Body Representative for MSA West. I am also a member of the nationally recognized Forensic Speech and Debate team, which further sharpens my public speaking and critical thinking skills. Honors like the Outstanding Transfer Scholar and multiple "Employee of the Month" awards showcase my dedication to excellence. Fluent in Arabic and skilled in legal writing, time management, and Microsoft Office Suite, I strive to make a meaningful impact in all my endeavors, be it in academia, legislation, or advocacy.
