I was born in Amsterdam, Holland on February 2, 1984. My parents had come from Persia in 1981, shortly after the Shah (the king) was chased away and the new regime took over the beautiful, wealthy and free Persia and turned it into "The Islamic Republic Of Iran". This is the same regime that still has power over Iran today. My father was a business man who traveled through Europe at the time and as he and my mom met (when she was traveling through Europe as well) and got married, Europe was where they stayed to build up their lives together. I grew up in Amsterdam and had lived there all my life.

I am bi-lingual, I speak both the language of Iran, which is Farsi and the language of Holland, which is Dutch. I learned to speak English at school. I was raised with both the European open minded culture and the Persian culture of courtesy and manners, class, hospitality towards others and great respect towards the elder and the wiser. This is what shines through my pictures as well..

During high school I was active in local modeling, after high school was when I began to get into fitness. I finished high school on HAVO level. In Holland we have a different schooling system, we have high school in levels of difficulty. VBO being the lowest, followed by MAVO for medium, HAVO for the higher level and VWO preparing you to go straight to university. After graduating high school in 2002, I went straight to college and studies psychology for one year. I was very interested in psychology to learn more about myself, about how the human mind works and how to be able to positively influence this to help other people in their lives. But after studying psychology for a year I realized that even though I was highly interested in psychology, I didn't want to make it my full time career. And besides that, I couldn't keep my focus on studying at that time.

I had a very strong feeling of wanting to travel around and explore the world, putting more focus on my modeling career and getting more into my fitness lifestyle. I wanted to follow my heart, live life by the day and let the wind carry me to where ever I needed to go. And so I did.. I realized that I had to do this to find peace with myself and carry on with my studies later on. So I took a pause from the student life to put more time into my modeling career, I took a dive into the world of fitness and glamour and was curious to see what would come out of all of this. And what better place to do this than in America? This is when you met me.. This is when I started working with photographers in America, doing professional modeling and started getting exposed in the media.

In early summer of 2004 I took my first three month trip to America. I was going to stay for three months. I traveled from Los Angeles to San Francisco, San Diego, Phoenix, San Jose, Miami Beach, South Beach and Fort Lauderdale, all to work with the best photographers in town and to have fun visiting these nice places. I had a wonderful experience traveling around and exploring each new city I visited and had a great time working with the photographers who all had a special eye in photography in their own unique way. I love to have great artists as professional photographers capture images of me to see in the results how they all define beauty in a different way.

During my three month trip I had worked with several photographers and things are really looking up for me. I am rather new in the modeling world and I didn't work with just anyone, so i'm not published "everywhere". In the short time that I have been modeling I have already accomplished working with several great celebrity photographers and companies and there are prosperous things happening in the near future that you will be hearing about. This is only the beginning.
