    Maggi was born and raised in Saudi Arabia.

She used her skills as a clinician to study new treatments for vitiligo and worked with UMass procedural dermatologists to successfully optimize and modify surgical transplantation as a cutting-edge treatment for patients with pigmentary skin disorders. Maggi successfully earned her clinical and translational PhD degree in dermatology from the University of Massachusetts, and then finished her surgical internship year at the University of Massachusetts.  
    Maggi aspires to be an academic dermatologic surgeon with a focus on surgical dermatology, laser, cosmetic surgery, and pigmentary disorders with particular interest in vitiligo. She loves teaching and medical education.
