“As a first generation queer Palestinian woman, it has been very hard navigating my PWI university. Since I have been at the university of Richmond, it has been a tireless fight toward achieving equity for all on my campus, fighting against Zionism, classism, elitism, ableism, sexism, and rape culture on my campus.
I am studying psychology with hope of pursuing a career in mental health services. I plan on traveling the world to gain experiences in this expertise and to expand my horizons and perspectives to broaden mg current scope on the world. As someone who is completely independent, I want others to know that it is very much attainable to reach your goals as long as you advocate for yourself and lean on your support system when in need.”
