Rahim hirani

Executive Director

Rahim is a current MD/PhD candidate at New York Medical College. Hailing from Pakistan and then having lived in Texas, Massachusetts, DC, and New York City provided him with a unique opportunity to meet people from different countries, and learn about their struggles and journey to this country they now call home. Being an immigrant himself, it was only natural for him to empathize with the people going through this tough process of seeking asylum in the country, which led him to join NYMCCHR. Along with combining his interest in medicine and politics, Rahim is passionate about dismantling implicit bias and promoting diversity in medicine. He looks forward to sharing his experience and learning from the community in the process. In his free time, Rahim loves to travel, explore new restaurants, enjoy live music, and spend quality time with his loved ones.
