About Me

As the principal of Sharing Risk dot Org, I am an expert researcher on Islamic finance as well as a freelance journalist with a monthly column in Business Islamica magazine and the US correspondent for Islamic Business & Finance magazine.

My areas of focus within Islamic finance are its growth within non-Muslim-majority countries, microfinance and the interaction of Islamic finance with other forms of ethical finance.

I presented a paper on a murabaha and musharaka based microfinance model at the 8th Havard University Forum on Islamic Finance in April 2008.

I serve as Chief Compliance Officer of Marquam Capital, an investment advisory firm specializing in ethical investing.

Between 2006 to 2008, I served as executive director of the Institute of Halal Investing, a think tank working to demystify Islamic finance among Muslims and non-Muslims.
