Ummzaytun represents versatility as it is the Mother of Olives. The Olive fruit is an extremely durable, versatile and delectable fruit. It is the base of many foods yet it can also be the centerpiece. I love this name because in many ways it represents me. With the graciousness of Allah SWT I am blessed to be a wife, a mother of two wonderful boys (Masha Allah!), a family Chef, completed my MBA, got a great career and now have AMuslima.com The opportunities that have been presented to me up till this point have all been self indulgent however this time around the opportunity is to serve and give back to my sisters in Islam and empower them with stories, life experiences and a warm community experience. I welcome all sisters from all nations to join and be a part of this exciting community. Bismillah~ Ummzaytun

Born and raised in the Washington D.C. metro area. I was homeschooled from 3rd grade up until starting community college. In studying biology in my final year of homeschooling, I became fascinated by the beauty and perfection of biological processes. This inspired my choice of major and I graduated in May 2011 with a B.S. in Biological Sciences. I started graduate school in August of the same year--I'm currently a 4th year PhD student in genetics and molecular biology at University of North Carolina Chapel Hill. The program is a lot of hard work, but I am grateful for the opportunities to study Allah's creation 🙂

I am a Muslim Pakistani-American working towards a degree in chemistry and two minors in English and biology. I study science with the hope of being able to understand the complexities and intricacies Allah has created when He created this universe. For this reason, the realms of chemistry, physics, and mathematics intrigue me. As an aspiring scientist who also happens to be a woman, I am also driven by the fact that this faith promotes female empowerment, particularly through education.
