About
I believe it's important to embrace what makes you different and to be your own person — and that's exactly the mindset I bring to every audience. As a Top 10 ranked wheelchair tennis athlete, entrepreneur, and the first Muslim American honored among the Ten Outstanding Young Americans, I don't just talk about resilience — I've lived it, on the court, in business, and on stage. My goal with every talk is to leave audiences with something practical they can act on immediately, not just inspiration that fades by the next day.
Embracing What Makes You Different
Keynote
A talk on identity, belonging, and self-acceptance, drawn from my own experience growing up with a disability and feeling excluded from spaces that weren't built with me in mind. Students walk away with a reframe: the things that make you different aren't a weakness to hide — they're the foundation of your strength. Includes practical tools for building confidence and navigating environments where you feel like an outsider.
