After graduating she worked for Columbus State Community College at an English as a Second Language afterschool program for Somali refugees in the Hilltop area. In 2011, she taught English at Hong Duc University and Can Tho University in Vietnam for eight months through the program Volunteers in Asia. After she returned she has continued working with the Somali population on the West side and working with other African refugees through both CSCC and Community Refugee Immigration Services. After seeing a need for culturally appropriate healthcare for the population she has decided to return to school in the future to become a Family Nurse Practitioner and continue to work with refugees.
