About me
I am an Iranian-American communications and advocacy professional with a background in international relations and journalism, working at the intersection of storytelling, film, and social impact. My work spans Middle East–focused advocacy, diaspora engagement, and refugee narratives alongside directing, acting, and visual storytelling. I focus on translating complex political and human realities into clear, grounded narratives across both public-facing media and cinematic work. I have led time-sensitive, cross-border projects with international organizations, newsrooms, and grassroots communities, while developing original creative work that explores identity, memory, and displacement.
