I believe design is most powerful when it creates a positive impact. As an Iranian-American multimedia artist, I see visual expression not just as a craft, but as a catalyst for change, whether it’s telling stories that matter, creating spaces that foster connection, or designing systems that make life more intuitive. My work spans branding, digital design, motion, packaging, way-finding, and print, always with a focus on clarity, storytelling, and purpose. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a B.F.A. in Graphic Design and a minor in Motion Media Design, earning academic and achievement honor scholarships and consistent recognition on the Dean’s List. Along the way, I’ve won multiple design awards, and my work has been published and exhibited in both academic and professional settings. Collaboration fuels my process. I’ve partnered with designers, strategists, and creatives from all backgrounds to transform complex ideas into functional, human-centered solutions, from large-scale environmental graphics to immersive brand systems.
