I’m a Computational Designer and Digital Solutions, currently based in the R&D department at Henning Larsen in Copenhagen. My focus is on problem-solving, digital tools, and holistic approaches, aiming to blend technology with sustainable and efficient solutions in the AECO industry. I’m originally from Tehran, Iran.

I spent an outrageous amount of time learning how to solve problems mostly in the design and engineering space through cutting-edge digital tools and automation. I started learning programming before I even chose to study architecture by learning ActionScript 3.0. Later, when I was introduced to digital architecture and fabrication, I picked up Grasshopper and a bit of scripting, continuing to hone what I'd learned to create tools on top of Rhino and Grasshopper.

After my graduation, I started working on design-to-fabrication pipelines where I developed tools to bridge between design and modular fabrication parts. Later, I developed an interest in the use of digital tools for sustainability and building performance.

After joining Henning Larsen's computational design/sustainability team, I've had an opportunity to dive more into building performance, CFD modeling, and microclimate - creating workflows for architectural and urban design analyses.

Being involved in several projects, I had an opportunity to use and learn different skill sets including scrumming, agile DevOps, team management, strategic planning, next to learning a bunch of new programming languages and technologies.
