Dr. Nadia Katrangi, Chairperson
Some scholars have the gift of communication, others have a penchant for the written word. Nadia has the rare combination of both gifts. Growing up in Syria with a deep Muslim faith, Nadia was always drawn to both her religious and academic studies. She has been mentored and trained for over twenty years and has received multiple certifications by renowned scholars in Damascus, Syria and professional experts in the United States. Her training in Islamic Sciences included The Biography of The Prophet Mohammad, Quranic Sciences and Interpretation, Islamic History, Islamic Jurisprudence and the Sciences of Hadith. Dr. Katrangi also received a certification of memorization and “tajweed” recitation (Ijaza) from Sheikh Al-Kurdi may God bless his soul. While studying medicine and eventually moving into a career in pathology, she found her academics and faith continue to cross paths. Nadia prides herself on finding beauty in the Quran, provoking thoughtful conversations and encouraging an open space for all who attend Good Tree retreats, classes or camps. The most rewarding thing she sees time and time again is when someone connects to themselves, those around them and to their Creator. “There is so much love in the Divine. When you live your life from that place, you have that on your side.”
