I am an award-winning architect dedicated to exploring the profound connections between the human psyche, the environment, and emerging technologies. Since entering the professional field in 2009– while I was still an architecture student-this path inspired me to pursue architecture not just as a profession, but as a deeper calling. I have cultivated a passion for research-driven architectural design, integrating academic insight with real-world practice, which led me to step into my specialized field even before completing my formal education. In 2011, I began collaborating on various design and research projects, strengthening my belief in architecture as a living dialogue-one that uplifts user experience and offers moments of positive distraction through the beauty of native arts. I earned my Master's degree in Architecture. Since then, I have delved deeper into the subject of environmental quality, a subfield of environmental psychology and behavioral sciences, and in this regard Currently, I serve as a university professor at the University of Isfahan Art, where I continue to merge teaching, research, and active design. Driven by curiosity and a deep commitment to meaningful, culturally rooted design, I seek to create environments where culture, comfort, and consciousness come together-spaces that don't merely function but deeply resonate. I welcome opportunities for international collaboration, effort-based design projects, and research partnerships that aim to shape a more human-centered built environment. Throughout my professional journey, I have consistently focused on integrating native arts and advanced technologies into user-centered environments. Additionally, I hold positions as a Design Manager and Engineering Manager, overseeing multidisciplinary teams and ensuring that every project is carried out as a collaborative, highly specialized effort-executed to the highest levels of quality and international standards

Architecture is a fundamental expression of a people’s culture, shaped by their environmental context. The future of architecture will certainly differ from its past — and even from recent years — due to the tangible integration of artificial intelligence and advanced technologies into the fields of design, supervision, and construction. This transformation brings faster design processes, enhanced supervision quality, and improved speed and precision in execution, all positively influenced by technological advancements.

Sustainable development is essential for the survival of humankind and the future of our planet. In order to reduce our footprint on Earth and ensure a livable world for future generations, we must take responsible actions today. Respecting and implementing sustainable practices is not just an option — it is a necessity.
