About

Dr. Aisha was born and raised in Florida. She reverted to Islam in February 2001 when she was a senior at the University of Central Florida. She studied bits and pieces of Islam trying to figure out how to right so many wrongs that go on during our life. She found the Quran to be full of healing, lessons to encourage us toward all that is good, and beautiful illuminations. Accepting and learning to practice Islam was truly a turning point in life.
