About me

Born in the UK I soon found myself under the golden skies of Tehran. My childhood danced between joy and chaos — war whispered at our doors, yet women shielded each other for moonlit swims and my dad transformed his office into a cinema, screening Robin Hood just for me. Life shimmered with artists, laughter, and music. Later, I studied in Istanbul, until Austria became our next chapter. Before I stepped on stage, I healed as a physician and spun nights as a DJane. But dance led me to theatre, where I lived many lives for over a decade. Now, I’m reunited with my first love: cinema.
