I trained as a CAB Adviser and provided interpretation and translation service for Bengali speaking clients. I was employed as a Legal Advice Sessions, Co-ordinator. My first historical novel will be published in 2012 and was shortlisted for the Muslim Writers Awards in 2008 and also longlisted for the Brit Writers Unpublished Award 2010. I self-published my first book in 2005 called 'Ibrahim - Where in the spectrum does he belong?'
I am currently writing my second novel. I am also writing a series of children’s book about an Asian autistic boy and the colours of the rainbow. I also co-authored a screenplay called 'India Ink' and have written articles. I am a member of www.societyofauthors.org and www.historicalnovelsociety.org.
