My research interests focus on the lives of South Asian immigrants in Canada, exploring their experiences of isolation, alienation, and identity crises as they navigate a bicultural existence. Through my research, I aim to spark curiosity about the South Asian diaspora in Canada by moving beyond stereotypes to address both contemporary and historical issues, fostering meaningful knowledge exchange.

As a South Asian (Bangladeshi) immigrant in Canada, I have always felt the need to share my stories and experiences and contribute to research on the South Asian diaspora. For me, CIRCLE is the ideal place to pursue this goal. I also want to connect with scholars who have similar research interests through CIRCLE.
