I enjoy learning from interesting people.  One such person is my friend, Obaid Siddiqui.  He always has an unique and interesting perspective on the happenings of the world.  His unique point of view has led him to a career in marketing and writing, with an emphasis on journalism.

He is making a name for himself at a relatively young age and has a bright future ahead of him.  He has been featured in and contributed to “All-American: 45 American Men on Being Muslim.”  Also, he has conducted extensive research and work that has culminated in his publication in magazines such as Illume Magazine.

Most recently, Obaid has published an article on the fallout from the Boston Marathon bombings for AltMuslim on Patheos, which can be read here.  Keep an eye out for this writer as he is making his mark on the world in a big way!
