PLEASE SHARE WIDELY

Sonoma State University is thrilled to announce our lineup of featured speakers for the INSPIRE SONOMA — PREPARING TODAY FOR TOMORROW speaker series, running from September 15 through November 3.

Our featured speaker on Thursday, September 17, 2026, is Amina Azhar, an Investigator with the Central Habeas Unit at the Federal Defender.

Thursday, September 17, 2026
7 PM | Student Center – Ballroom A

This event is hybrid. We warmly invite you to join us in person; however, for those who are unable to attend on campus, a virtual option will also be available via Zoom: Join the event via Zoom.
Amina Azhar is an Investigator with the Central Habeas Unit at the Federal Defender and has dedicated more than 15 years to representing indigent clients in complex felony and capital cases at both the trial and post-conviction levels. Originally from Sweden, she immigrated to California to attend Sacramento State. Fluent in Swedish, she brings both an international and cross-cultural perspective to her work and has collaborated on criminal justice initiatives in the United States and Sweden.

Her work takes a holistic approach to criminal defense, integrating factual investigation with an understanding of family history, trauma, competency, and mental health to pursue justice, healing, and restoration for clients, victims, and communities.

Her commitment to justice began early in her career as a paralegal, where she represented Indian citizens—primarily Sikhs—who had experienced torture by law enforcement, as well as Pakistani nationals seeking asylum in the United States based on persecution for their sexual orientation.

Today, Amina continues her work defending individuals facing the death penalty while exploring the human stories that shape crime, justice, and resilience. Her expertise and compassionate approach offer a unique perspective on criminal justice, human rights, and the power of understanding the lived experiences behind every case.

And don’t forget to join us for our first Inspire Sonoma featured speaker, Olympic gold and silver medalist Haleigh Washington, on Tuesday, September 15, at 7 PM in Student Center Ballroom A.
