“For me, the most important part of the (interviewing) process is trust, and to gain a stranger’s trust is no easy feat, especially since I was asking them to talk about intimate and personal stories, which included struggle, loss, and stress. Drawing from my previous interviewing techniques, I relied heavily on creating a connection through shared experiences––I too was Muslim and living (temporarily) in a new environment.”
