Prior to that, she worked for The Christian Science Monitor.[2] Before The Christian Science Monitor, Faiza was a writer with The Associated Press, based in the United Arab Emirates.[2] She left her job as Gulf Correspondent for The Washington Post in 2009 to focus on filmmaking and recently completed a summer program at the USC School of Cinematic Arts. Faiza documented her experience at Sundance Institute's RAWI Screenwriters Lab in Jordan where she honed her storytelling skills under the guidance of Creative Advisors. She worked on a script "A Reverence for Spiders" and was selected to participate in a Sundance Institute program. In 2015, a French-language film "Mariam" which she wrote and directed, dealing with a teenage French Muslim girl's dilemma over wearing an hijab after it was banned in schools, was released.
