Kiran is proficient in Arabic, was a Harvard Crimson Editorial Board Editor, and tutored students for the citizenship exam. He interned for the Democratic Caucus of the House of Representatives and was a ghostwriter/speechwriter for a Democratic candidate for Fairfax County Commonwealth's Attorney. At present, he works with the Fairfax County NAACP, supporting their educational priorities and justice initiatives. Kiran's father is an Iraq War veteran and Kiran wrote "The last four generations of my family joined the army and … were both victims and agents of the white American imperial will." His academic interest is in administrative and economic institutions, "in particular, in the sliding schema of regulation, by which private organizations and the state enforce economic and social rules with maniacal harshness against the poor and flexible permissiveness against the powerful." Kiran has been admitted to Harvard Law. He will study Economics at Queen’s University Belfast.
