Hi there! I’m a Bangladeshi American cartoonist and writer based in San Francisco.

I’m interested in using art, humor, and storytelling to uplift marginalized voices and create community through shared experiences. My work has been published in The New Yorker, McSweeney’s, The Nib, The Rumpus, San Francisco Examiner, The Forum, Greener Pastures, and Awry Comics. My art has been exhibited at museums and galleries including the Cartoon Art Museum, Sealevel, The Drawing Room, Hunt & Gather, and Babylon Burning. I have been recognized as a Creative in Residence at The Ruby, Guest Cartoonist at the Charles M. Schulz Museum, Interdisciplinary Writers Lab alum at Kearny Street Workshop, Cartooning Resident at St. Nell’s, Showcase Artist at APAture, and member of the National Cartoonists Society.

For my day job, I am the Communications Manager of the App Inventor Foundation, an educational platform that empowers anyone anywhere to build mobile apps for social good. Before this, I served as Managing Editor of Children of 1971, a nonprofit that connects the Bangladeshi diaspora through storytelling.

In a previous life, I worked as a software engineer at Samsara, Yelp, NASA, and Facebook. I received a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science from MIT.
