Khan is the writer of the Rain and Sunshine Saga, a series of interconnected, research-backed fictional narratives, each of which revolves around a policy area of public concern. They are as follows:

American Opioid: A single mother of a disabled child struggles with opioid use disorder after an automobile accident.

Cochlear: A deaf boy with a hidden gift struggles against bullying and apathy in an underfunded public school system.

Game On! Esports and #MeToo: An aspiring female esports athlete struggles against discrimination and lack of representation.

Digital Mafia: An Asian American family with a small business contends with racism and the new realities of the attention economy, data privacy, and surveillance capitalism.

Silicon Valley Giants: The young founders of a business startup are exploited by the owners of the vast platforms they must rely on to reach customers.

All five narratives are being released for free in audio format as podcasts. American Opioid is currently available for listening on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other apps. The remaining narratives are being prepared for launch.

Khan has worked in a variety of areas, but one unbroken thread runs through it all: serving and informing the public. He is excited by the prospect of fighting for you as a member of the Santa Clara County Democratic Central Committee, and hopes to earn your vote.
