Lead Architectural Designer, Construction Superintendent, and Developer for 50,000 SQ FT commercial expansion project, currently in development while at Ghods Builders Inc.

Attending the Tesla North Hollywood grand opening was a joy. Connecting with engineers like Wes Morrill and Ari Naggar, and being part of the Tesla community, made me feel at home and further inspired me to pursue joining the team at Tesla.

Visiting Tesla's Giga Texas factory in Austin was a highlight for me. Seeing the production lines for the Model Y and Cybertruck up close—and connecting with Tesla employees and fellow enthusiasts—gave me a deeper appreciation for Tesla's innovation and community.

At the WeRobot Event, I met inspiring figures like Sandy Munro, Franz von Holzhausen, and Kimbal Musk. It was a unique opportunity to discuss robotics, sustainability, and innovation with leaders and peers.

In 2022, I expanded our family's Tesla collection with multiple vehicles: a Model S Plaid and Model S Long Range in August, a Model X Plaid for my mom in July, and a white-on-white Model X Plaid for my fiancé in June.

Bought my first Tesla — a 2018 Model 3 Performance — after years with a GT3 and M3. Loved the platform immediately but saw clear upgrade paths: spherical bushings, better arms, carbon ceramics, aftermarket suspension, smaller wheels.In 2024 I added a China-built Model 3 Standard Range and was stunned by the progress — especially the excellent FSD suspension. Constant OTA updates keep it exciting and turned me into a passionate advocate.I demo the cars to friends and family; many buy their own Teslas afterward. Most frequent question: "Do you work for Tesla?" My answer: "Maybe one day."

In 2020, I invested all my assets into Tesla stock, driven by my belief in the company's vision and leadership.

Using my architectural knowledge, I designed several prototypes of a hydroponic modular vertical tower, which I 3D-printed and tested for urban environments. This innovative system focused on sustainability and efficient food production, and I received government funding to patent it through IPON in Ontario, Canada.

In 2022, I began developing the Vent project, a modular, energy-efficient ventilation system for urban buildings.

Completed a five-year professional degree in Architecture at the University of Southern California. Notable project work includes the Glass Pavilion, a collaborative design-build project featured in eVolo Architecture Magazine.

The Glass Pavilion emerged from a second-year studio focusing on materials and their structural properties. Working with fellow students under instructor Roland Wahlroos-Ritter, we explored folded plate geometry and origami techniques, ultimately creating a 1:1 prototype using over 800 polycarbonate pieces and 2500 zip ties. The project demonstrated innovative structural behavior and spatial transformation, serving as a proof-of-concept for a future glass pavilion.

A year after starting at Junior College, I completed all the required courses for admission to USC School of Architecture. My hard work paid off as I was admitted to the university a semester early, allowing me to continue my general education courses. Although the architecture studio officially started in Fall 2011, I was already at USC by Spring 2011.

At 17, I moved back to Toronto for 11th grade but found the experience so unfulfilling that I decided to accelerate my education. I crammed half of my grade 12 courses into that year and completed the rest during the summer in Orange County, alongside college courses. This strategic move was aimed at transferring to USC School of Architecture (Class of 2016), where my older brother was already studying and where he would graduate in 2013.

Upon returning to California in the summer of 2009, I obtained my high school diploma in August, while my peers were just beginning their senior year. By then, I had completed a semester of college courses as part of my accelerated path to USC School of Architecture. I maintained an almost perfect GPA and served as a senator in the student government body, all while compiling my portfolio for my dream school.

At the age of 10, I moved from Canada to the USA, embarking on a new chapter filled with cultural adjustments and new experiences. Two years later, at age 12, I officially became a US citizen, marking a significant moment in my life that broadened my opportunities and perspectives.

Born in Toronto, Canada, on November 13, 1991, to two Iranian immigrants who were real estate developers, my life began amidst the world of custom homes, later expanding into townhomes, high-rises, and mega-mansions, shaping my early influences in architecture and development.
