About

About Me

I'm an Iranian-American illustrator inspired by Persian rugs, Rumi's poetry, and Persian mosaics, which ultimately led me to surface design. From a young age, I've had a profound love for bright colors, which now has infiltrated my work, fashion, and life. I love to fuse traditional Persian motifs with a fresh, playful twist. I’m passionate about storytelling through leading and directing projects. Between freelancing or working in-house for consumer products, as a surface designer, I aim to establish my own business in the future.
