I am a designer, futurist, and educator. Although one can trace thematic and methodic dependencies in my concerns, my design practice is diverse, peculiar, and playful, often addressing multiple socio-political trends and issues within the frameworks of Futures Studies and Speculative Design. My work ranges from radical design fiction schemes and critical science fiction stories to more practical, yet innovative urban and business proposals.

I have a master of architecture in situated technologies from SUNY Buffalo (2016), kickstarting the more serious side of my career at the intersection of design, futures, and technology. During my higher education, I was allowed to experiment with the possible future paths, which lets me become the unique person I am today. After my graduation, I have mainly been a freelance designer/educator. However, for shorter periods of time, I worked part-time as Researcher at Tehran Urban Innovation Center (2017), as Research and Development Manager at Nextoffice (2018), and as Futurist and Storyteller at Future City Innovation Lab (2019-2020). Also in 2018, I became an associate member of the World Futures Studies Federation.

By holding over 20 workshops and tutoring multiple design courses and studios since 2016, I have maintained my presence in design education spheres in my hometown of Tehran, Iran. I am also the chapter leader of Speculative Futures Tehran, the Tehran chapter of Design Futures Initiative, facilitating the much-needed international interaction for my colleagues and students through different activities. I participated in multiple volunteer initiatives around the country, where I utilized my expertise to foster the true needs of local populations beyond common corporate greed and governmental flaunt.
