Interview: Malaz Mohamad (Houston, TX)

Hailing from the cultural medley that is the city of Houston, Malaz developed her passion for psychology and human-focused design at Rice University where she graduated with her BA. For the past year, her interest in social advocacy has burgeoned as she worked with communities close to the border and overseas on an initiative to prevent diabetic foot ulcers. Now, she hopes to nurture a spiritually and psychologically conscious approach to addressing mental health issues in Muslim communities. She aims to pursue a doctorate in clinical psychology.
