I was born in Tehran, Iran. My family and I immigrated to the states when I was seventeen years old. During the immigration process I lived in Vienna Austria for 5 months which allowed me to explore beautiful Europe. When I got to the United States, my family and I resided in southern California where I lived for 11 years. After getting accepted to dental school, I moved to Arizona and loved it so much that decided to call it my home. I like to educate my patients and help them choose an appropriate treatment plan. I’m committed to the overall health and dental care of my patients through education and preventive measures.
