About

Biography

Born in 1986 in Isfahan, Iran, I am a second-generation Iraqi refugee whose personal and professional journey has been shaped by resilience, adaptability, and a deep passion for design and technology. I began my career at the age of 15 as an apprentice in a small graphic design studio led by Mr. Mehdi Noori, a highly respected graphic designer of the time. Under his mentorship at Zeytoon Graphics Office, I gained foundational experience in graphic design, printing, and publishing, which laid the groundwork for my future in the creative industry.

Despite being deprived of formal education for four years from the age of 11 due to citizenship-related restrictions, I remained determined to learn. During this period, I pursued computer literacy through public and private training courses and studied English under the guidance of my father, a professional language translator.

At 14, I was recruited as a practical computer instructor at the Noor Computer Education Organization after passing a competitive interview—an early milestone that underscored my commitment to teaching and knowledge sharing. Although I continued formal education through the second year of high school, I eventually chose an alternative, empirical path at the recommendation of the legendary Professor Ghobad Shiva. For two consecutive years, I studied intensively under his direct mentorship, deepening my skills in graphic design and the visual arts.

My early mastery of computer science, programming, and English, combined with my dedication to self-education and my exposure to world-class mentorship, became a strong foundation for my multidisciplinary expertise. A deep curiosity and hands-on approach to research, learning, and design have been central to my evolution as a designer.

In 2015, encouraged by my close friend and colleague Mr. Sarvdalir, I participated in Dr. Rahbar’s algorithm-writing workshop at the Faculty of Art and Architecture at Tarbiat Modares University (TMU). This formative experience opened a new intellectual chapter and led to a major milestone: in collaboration with Mr. Sarvdalir, I developed the first Iranian Muqarnas algorithm. We presented this achievement at a dedicated seminar, contributing to the academic and architectural design communities.

Since then, while continuing to work across various areas of graphic and industrial design, I have been actively involved in algorithmic and parametric design projects. In recent years, I have focused particularly on Python programming as a medium for advancing parametric systems. Along this journey, I have benefitted immensely from the expertise and courses of Dr. Rahbar and the mentorship of my esteemed teacher, Dr. Ismailbeigi.

Today, I lead my own studio, offering services in branding, industrial design, coding and parametric algorithm development, research, and specialized consultancy. My work continues to be guided by a spirit of innovation, a commitment to craftsmanship, and the enduring integration of art, technology, and cultural heritage.
