Bio

Being part of the so-called "internet generation", I'm always looking for newer and better ways to integrate fun and creativity into social media and get the most out of each platform. I believe the internet age presents endless opportunities and as a social media manager I hope to continue connecting people to each other.

I'm passionate about

the English language, personal development and how we can get the most out of this short time we have (watching seminars and reading books on self improvement all day, every day), pop culture, finding new ways to integrate fun and creativity into social media, social media marketing, marketing and advertisement, MUSIC, MOVIES, lyrics, writing poetry, interesting and powerful female leaders and of course, feminism.

An idea worth spreading

Instead of judging others based on stereotypes and misconceptions, realize that everyone is insecure, everyone is looking to be loved deep down, so just be kind. Easy right?

Areas of expertise

architecture, content creation, english, pop culture, social media, translation

The TED story

Back in the day when I was an awkward introvert going to an all-girls high school, TED and it's inspirational speakers were my saving grace. I could see my future in them. From Mel Robbins to Sarah Kay, leaders from all over the board keep inspiring me in ways I couldn't have ever imagined and this year I'm lucky enough to be part of the TEDXTehran team. It's just the beginning of my TED story.

People don't know I'm good at

bringing people together and putting out positive energy and lifting the mood, thinking on my feet and being quite the debater and social butterfly.
