I have always had a passion for art and have been interested in creating art since I was a young girl. Born in Iran, and spending a few years in school in Lille, France, and at a young age, moving to the United States, I absorbed many cultural influences.

After years of being in the design industry, I have now devoted myself to be a professional artist, and just in 2021 I launched my website and social media account. -- Up Magazine
