Tropes associated with her roles include:
- Actor-Shared Background:
- She's of the Muslim faith, just like Halo. Subverted when Halo reveals she's not Muslim. She just likes wearing the hijab.
- She voices another Muslim, Zahra, on Glitch Techs.
- Deadpan Snarker: She voices plenty of sarcastic, quippy characters.
- Star-Making Role: Rizavi and Halo.
- Woman of a Thousand Voices: Every character she voices sounds incredibly distinct from each other. She now voices the most characters out of any actor on Young Justice by far.
