Rama Musa is a Sierra Leone-born American journalist whose writings on culture, immigration, foreign policy, technology, and global health have appeared in The Times of Israel, Tablet, International Watch, and Clinics in Dermatology. Musa did a stint in foreign diplomacy at the U.S. State Department in Geneva, Switzerland. Shortly after, she moved to Jerusalem, Israel, for one year to conduct research as a Fulbright Fellow, an award she was the first to win as an honors graduate of Fairleigh Dickinson University. Musa published her first piece as a cover story on the Millennium Villages Project in West Africa. In Perugia, Italy, she worked as a contributor to the 2013 International Journalism Festival. Musa is a member of the National Association of Black Journalists and Young Professionals in Foreign Policy.

Born in Sierra Leone in 1987, Musa spent her childhood in Freetown in a house overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. She has had fascinating  experiences in North America, Africa, Europe, and the Middle East, in places ranging from Montréal to Marrakesh, Girona to Ghana, Oxford to Austria. She loves fresh coconut water, and is delighted that a charming village near St-Tropez is named after her.
