Salaam! I'm a Somali-American writer, technologist, and storyteller working at the intersection of equity, language, and public interest technology. Access Point is my offering—a space for nuanced conversations that bridge disciplines, histories, and futures. With roots in East Africa, a rhythm shaped by global movement, and a career that spans journalism, software, and advocacy, I created this series to center the voices and stories shaping how we govern, belong, and witness as we build.
