She credits her Islamic journey to the year 1996 when she began attending Islamic classes in Hayward\, California. Her teacher and mentor taught these classes since then: Shaykh Hamza Yusuf. One of her main areas of focus is to help create a strong sisterhood for the women in the community by leading halaqas (spiritual study circles) and support groups whilst offering individual spiritual counseling and mentoring. She noted that many of the spiritual problems encountered were actually reflective of the community’s deep and complicated mental health issues and would be better served by focusing on mental health.
