Ali and Nadia are co-founders of Muslim Gatherings and are a happily married couple. He's from the San Francisco Bay area and she's from Toronto, Canada. It all started from a marriage proposal that made local newspapers in Canada (you can ask Nadia about it). He's a techie and she is learning  about how to keep her patients  breathing. She loves chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and he can't live without his workouts. They're both quintessential students and just plain nuts. 

Both Ali and Nadia have a passion for MG and they, along with all the other MG organizers, enjoy bringing an element of fun and spontaneity to the events.
