I am an Iranian Australian writer and creative strategist based in New York City.

I currently work as a Creative Strategist at Time Out Media in NYC, writing, creating and strategising for major campaigns across North America.

I'm also an ex-Time Out Magazine editor and awarded essayist who has written numerous colorful, digital-first stories on culture, travel and social justice for the likes of Refinery29, Time Out, SBS (like Australia's BBC) and Billabong, amongst many others.

I prioritize empathy and nuanced global perspectives in my storytelling, and bring a warm, human-centered focus to everything that I do.
