From a young age , I was lucky to observe my amazing parents teach dozens of students, and I grew up in an environment enriched with great music! I have been an educator for over a decade and have taught students of varying levels from young beginners to graduate students.

I am currently based in the DMV area, and perform both as a concert violist as well as a chamber musician. I have performed, commissioned, and recorded various works by composers of the Iranian diaspora. To learn about my performance schedule and my research click the link below.

I am a Co-Director of Learning and Engagement at the National Philharmonic, a Co-Founder of LyreIran, and on the Leadership Committee at District New Music Coalition.
