I am the founder and CEO of Empowerment Through Integration (ETI), a nonprofit committed to developing a more inclusive society by empowering youth with disabilities through direct-service programming and by transforming social and cultural stigma against disabilities. ETI strives to elevate marginalized voices, diverse viewpoints, and respect for individual value. Inspired by my own journey as a Lebanese-American Muslim woman who lost my sight at age seven, I have transformed my passion into empowering individuals to become catalysts for change in their own lives, communities, and beyond.
