Raised in Winnipeg, Canada, she eventually relocated back home, and graduated from her secondary studies at Al Ferdous High School in 2002 to pursue a degree in Medicine at King Abdulaziz University. During her fourth year of medical school, Dania was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, which changed the path of her journey, but did not change her true passion for writing.
An avid writer since childhood, she was inspired by the poems of her grandfather, Diya’a al-Deen Rajab. Dania Jamjoom’s poetry stands witness to her remarkable journey of growth, accompanying her through her coming of age, and the subsequent highs and lows of her medical condition. To Dania, writing was not only the release she needed for her complex emotions––it was second nature, a part of her identity for as long as she could remember.view less
