My formal training began with my doctoral training at Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology/Albert Einstein College of Medicine, followed by a post-doctorate at Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, where my foundation in evidence-based medical science was laid.

Learning ayurveda later in life along with my rich Iranian heritage, have shaped my holistic approach to well-being. The cultural practices and natural connections I cherish have been instrumental in my own path to health and happiness.

I live my philosophy daily, finding healing and inspiration in nature's simplicity — through barefoot walks on the beach and grass by myself or with a friend, nurturing my garden, doing breath-work, or practicing yoga with the ocean's rhythm. As I continue to grow and learn in my field, I remain committed to expanding my knowledge through ongoing research, collaboration with fellow professionals, and immersion in both modern and ancestral healing practices.
