A Brief Biography
I was born in Tehran and grew up in Ardabil, a city northwest of Iran. I completed my undergraduate degree in Civil Engineering and Master of Science in “Hydraulic Structures” from K.N.Toosi University of Technology, Tehran. In 2012, I moved to the United States in order to pursue a Master of Science in “Structural Mechanics” and a Doctorate in “Earthquake Engineering” from the University of Colorado at Boulder. From June 2015 to Dec 2019, I worked as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate emphasizing the structural safety assessment of nuclear power plants and dam safety subjected to multi-hazard (e.g., aging and shaking). In January 2020, I joined NIST as a researcher. Since 2016, I have served as a lecturer at the University of Colorado, Boulder.
