About

I’m an economist with over a decade of experience in research, data analysis, and academic leadership, passionate about turning numbers into insights that matter. I’ve worked on projects like the World Bank’s Blue Economy Data Review in Bangladesh, crunching fisheries stats with Stata and Excel to shape policy, and spent years at Carleton University exploring food security trends. With a Master’s from Shiraz University and a Ph.D. nearing completion from Tarbiat Modares University, I’ve tackled big datasets—think 15,000+ records—to study poverty and agriculture.

I thrive on solving complex problems, whether it’s modeling economic impacts or guiding teams, and I’m eager to bring my skills to a role where data drives real change.
