Her site won the “Best Female Blogger” Brass Crescent, an award that honors the best of the Muslim blogosphere, and helped to catalyze a national conversation focusing on women in the mosque.

During her time at IFYC, she also collaborated on developing the training roster for university-focused Interfaith Leadership Institute conferences, training hundreds of students from across the country.
