I am an Iranian/American actor, writer and activist, born and raised in Tehran, Iran, based in New York City.
I moved to New York in my teens, where I studied design at Fashion Institute of Technology, and after joining the FIT theatre ensemble, I discovered my love of acting and story telling. I am a graduate from the esteemed Maggie Flanigan Studio.
I seek stories that speak to me, with rich, three dimensional characters, good and bad, while exploring their humanity and fragility.
I’m fluent in Persian(Farsi) , a Transgender advocate, as well as a voice for immigrants’ and women’s issues. I am also involved in writing and co-writing original LGBT stories to shed light on an otherwise under represented community.
