She has also written essays and articles for several other print and online publications, including Parabola, Muslim Girl, the Yale Journal for Humanities in Medicine, Urban Mozaik, and Dissident Voice. Born in Chicago in 1979, she grew up mostly in Dayton, Ohio amid a strong and vibrant Iranian-American diaspora.
