Engineer, Student

I'm a PhD student based in Tehran, with 10 years of experience in research. My path has taken me through difficult situations, and it taught me that curiosity is the best compass. I'm passionate about learning across disciplines and sharing what I discover with others.

Outside of work, I find balance through sport, art, and classical literature. Physical activity keeps my mind sharp and my spirit resilient. Art teaches me to see the world differently, and the timeless works of classical literature remind me that the questions humans ask today are the same ones they've asked for centuries.

I'm drawn to ideas at the intersection of fields: how technology reshapes human creativity, why stories shape the way we think, and how small daily habits can lead to remarkable long-term change. I'm especially curious about the future of education, cognitive science, cultural identity and love ideas that challenge assumptions or make complex things simple.
