I was born in Iran and moved to US at the age of 16 to pursue my studies which included degrees in economics and finance from UC, Berkeley and The Wharton School. I am fortunate to have lived, studied and worked in some amazing cities like San Francisco, Philadelphia, NYC, Chicago, Amsterdam and London. I decided to step away from the corporate world in 2021 in order to spend more time with family, friends and pursue my interests including photography.

My photography journey started at a young age with taking family snapshots. I then explored medium format film photography capturing landscapes of California. I picked up street photography in 2012 but it wasn’t until I moved to London that I began to take street photos on a regular basis. My long term street photography project London Diaries is a visual journey into life on the streets of London, primarily around the West End and Soho (where I lived between 2013-2021).

Since September of 2024 I have been dedicating my creative energy towards learning and experimenting with beauty, editorial and fashion photography. I am currently based in San Francisco and travel frequently to Los Angeles, NYC and London and plan to work with other creatives, models and agencies to continue to develop my fashion portfolio in these cities.

In addition to working on my own photography projects, I have been promoting the works of other photographers through exhibitions and events organized by 3 Street Gallery in London which I founded in June 2018 together with Joshua K. Jackson and Sean Tucker. I have also recently collaborated with Leica UK on the launch of the Leica Q2 Monochrom.
