I was born in Tehran, in 1976 , very fortunately to a family that had great appreciation for art, music , literature.. I grew up in that wonderfully bizarre time in the history of that beautiful land that encompassed a revolution, war and political turmoil. The life I experienced in Iran is perhaps what defines me most. A life full of fear , intense friendships, close bonds and interactions, despair, anger and sadness alongside extreme excitement.. it definitely formed a part of the prism through witch I look at life and shaped my view of the world and humanity in general. I'm ever so grateful for a life that was at the very least not boring or empty at any moment!

I studied Mathematics and worked a few years in my field, however recently photography has become my main purpose. It is the most comfortable medium for me to speak of my reality, the best way I've found to express myself.
