Zainab Ahmadi, is a fourth year student at Rutgers University Newark, School of Criminal Justice. From her very own community in Parsippany, New Jersey, Zainab remains as the first and only girl to enter the field of criminal justice. Her passion to understand the science behind criminality has outweighed the odds she faced. With support from her family she strives to achieve her goal of becoming a criminal prosecutor.

On campus Zainab stays active by advocating for Shia Rights and has served as the founding Vice President of the Ahlul-Bayt Student Association. She has also been an active member of the Criminal Justice Club. Zainab hopes that her journey can set an example for younger generations and encourage them to study criminal justice.
