After 27+ rejections, I got a master's scholarship in Morocco in 2023. End of my first year of master's study, I decided to apply for a PhD. I applied to 16 schools, got admitted to 5. I graduated from my master's program on July 31 and resumed my fully funded PhD Aug 25 in USA
What’s the most unhinged thing you’ve done to get ahead?

What happens when students begin learning to think like teachers? This fall, I started teaching two classes of future teachers at @PurdueEDU ! The experience is changing how I think about teaching, too. Biggest lesson? Great teaching starts with care, not just content.

3 years ago, we opened @BraceuptheYoung College and no student came. Next term: 7 students. Today: 60 students, each receiving 6 years of tuition-free secondary education. From empty classrooms to 60 dreams. We’re seeking partners & sponsors to help us reach more children, DM

One of the best parts of my PhD journey is finding spaces where I can learn, serve & contribute. This month, I joined the AERA Division B leadership team at Wayne State to review proposals and help shape #AERA2027 as Junior Graduate Student Rep. Grateful for the experience.
