About 

A versatile architect with a Master’s degree in Architectural Engineering who has designed dozens of construction projects in a time span of about fourteen years.
The projects include eco-friendly residential, industrial buildings, and landscape projects. Being well-versed in numerous architectural engineering software, I have a strong background in team working, creative problem-solving, construction supervision, and project coordination.
I commenced my Bachelor's at Tabriz Islamic Art University and attended several courses in computer-assisted design. 
Initially, after graduating with a Bachelor's degree, I worked as a freelance designer with multiple architectural firms, whereby I became reinforced by experience in designing at all phases of construction and interpersonal skills. Partnering with other engineering disciplines provided an outstanding opportunity for me to excel in creative problem-solving and teamwork. 
After finishing my Master’s, I taught several undergraduate interns and juniors numerous courses in computer-assisted design and fundamentals of residential design.
Currently, I work as a senior architect for Mahan Air, Department of Construction Projects, where I have been responsible for leading a group of junior design members as well as conducting site visits to ensure all drawings follow the construction regulations. Gaining a broad range of technical knowledge in airport design, I cooperated with SEA Group as an architectural coordinator on the Kerman New Airport Terminal project.
