Najat (she/her) enjoys film, yoga, herbalism, dance, poetry, gardening, and cooking. In addition to her studies in Art Therapy, she is passionate about speaking up against low (unfair) wages, lack of educational and medical access, housing insecurity, and immigration. Najat joined the Fellowship because she believes her story can help other women in similar situations and feels fortunate to be on the other side of her obstacles. Her goals during her time as a Fellow were to gain new insights, great memories, and tools to use daily by the end of the Fellowship.
“My story is here to help the world reimagine immigrant rights. My hope is, through owning my own story and reclaiming my future, that it can liberate others who are walking a similar path.”
