After a short history in the theater realm, Mohammad started writing and performing poetry at open mics and slams, and eventually joined the Poetic Portraits of a Revolution team, a project that documented the recent uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia through art and spoken word. He was featured on WUNC's Morning Edition and Dick Gordon's The Story, and has spoken and performed at various universities and institutions including TEDxUNC, The Process Series, and The Visualizing Human Rights Conference.
