Description

Dr. Reshmaan Hussam went to MIT for undergrad and grad school to study economics. As a developmental economist, she found herself as Harvard Business School’s first (a pretty confident assumption) hijabi professor. TL;DR -- her goal is to ensure some of the world's future business leaders are well versed in some of the world's greatest injustices. And other stuff. She sits at the intersection of development, behavioral, and health economics.
Listen to Reshma talk about her journey, and how she found herself writing case studies for business school students about Rohingya.

Hi! I am Layla Shaikley (@laylool), I co-founded a tech company and I am also visibly Muslim. So, my identity has been front and center throughout my life and career. I have lived a lifetime of reclaiming my narrative. This is my podcast where I will interview fellow Muslim guests with interesting career paths reclaiming theirs too. I'll share insights on my journey throughout the way. Listen if you want career inspo, life inspo, or just to know what’s up. https://www.instagram.com/laylool/ https://www.tiktok.com/@laylool https://www.instagram.com/muslimsdoingthings/ Views are my own
