She won their Best Poem awards in 2015 and 2021, respectively. As an organizer, she created the Salaam Initiative and Chai Society at Cabrillo College, where she has taught English since 2000. She continues to curate cultural spaces through events such as Al-Mutanabbi Street Starts Here. Her photo project was displayed in the traveling exhibition, Shadow & Light. Twice a reader for In Celebration of the Muse, she has helped coordinate that event for the HIVE Poetry Collective (member 2022-2024), for whom she has taped poetry podcasts aired on KSQD’s Sunday night Poetry Show. Her personal essay, “Laid to Rest,” is forthcoming in Veterans of War, Veterans of Peace Vol. II (2025), edited by Maxine Hong Kingston.
