About Me:
I am an anthropologist and writer studying developing transnational networks of culture and technology between the US and the Middle East/Central Asia. I work as the Analysis Coordinator for the "Faith and Organizations Project", a research project examining social capital among not-for-profit faith-based agencies and organizations in the Baltimore/Washington area. I am also an adjunct Lecturer of Anthropology at Montgomery College in Rockville, Maryland, and I teach a class on Modern Middle Eastern culture and history at the Baltimore Free School. I earned a Masters Degree in Anthropology at the George Washington University (5/09) focusing on international development in North Africa and Western Asia. I also hold a BA in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Maryland, College Park (5/06). In my free time I am also a potter and ceramic tile-maker.
