For as long as I remember, I have loved everything to do with the written word. My parents immigrated to the UK from Afghanistan when I was two years old, and traversing two different worlds has informed so much of how I see the world and explore it through my pen!
After completing my post graduate degree in Linguistics, I loved into copywriting for the third sector, however fiction and non fiction writing always pulled me back. I have written opinion pieces that have featured in the Metro, Amaliah and Islam21c. Now I spend my days writing, home educating my four energetic children and trying to keep my five cats at bay in the process!
I am also the author of three YA non-fiction books on Islamic history and spirituality. Deeply rooted in the community, I bring lived understanding, authenticity, and cultural nuance to the stories I love to write!
