I was born and raised in a very small town (Gorgan, Iran) which is located in South-East of the Caspian Sea. I am very passionate about computers. My interest in computers started when my father bought me a computer for the first time. My first computer was based on Intel 80486 running DOS and I used to play 'The Lion King' on it. My interest in computers went to whole new level when I was a high school freshman and I visited my brother's dorm room, and there I met guy who was finishing his Masters in Computer Science. He showed me a trick to by-pass windows XP's login password. Right after my interaction with that guy, I started learning programming in Visual Basic and I made simple applications using that platform. Then I participated in various Mathematics and Programming competitions across the province. Between ages of 15 to 16, I got heavily involved in writing websites and themes for CMS systems like WordPress, in addition to setting up my own VPN/Proxy/Socks Services and doing reseller web hosting.

One months after my 17 birthday (summer of 2010) I moved to U.S. Shorewood, WI. I tried to enroll for High School here in U.S. but all public High Schools rejected me as I already got my High School diploma one year early (at age of 17) back in Iran. Therefore, I had no other option but to sign up in a small private High School to improve my English proficiency. In the summer of 2011, I started a summer internship at Swick Technology located in Wauwatosa, WI where I became fascinated with technology and programming to the point that I decided to pursue a degree in Computer Science at UW-Milwaukee.

I started working with Dr. Pradeep Rohatgi in early 2013 (until Spring of 2015) at UWM's Center for Composites and Advance Materials Manufacturing (CAMM). I worked directly with Dr. Rohatgi, a UWM Distinguished Professor, and also Dr. Roshan (Entrepreneur and Industry Expert) to implement the MAGMA software package, and use it to predict the results of solidification of different materials and predict behavior/results with variation of shape, temperature, Mold types and more. Additionally, I had to teach graduate students (who were taking Material Engineering-732 & Metal Casting Engineering-456 as well as people in our group) how to use the software. The use of MAGMA software gave the team an upper hand as they could simulate the process of solidification. Therefore, they can predict the results and fix any possible errors before they happen. This translates to saving time and money. In particular, over my working experiences at CAMM, I utilized my knowledge in Computational Geometry and Differential Equations (especially partial differential equations).

I also was involved with Dr. Rohatgi's team regarding the Governor of Wisconsin's Business Plan Contest in both 2013 and 2014. In particular, I became especially interested in Business Plan preparation. I observed and contributed to the process of preparing business plans and presenting to venture investors. That process was so fascinating for me that I decided to take Innovation and Commercialization class (CS657) to advance his knowledge. In particular, I am most interested in the process of commercialization and creating a successful enterprise.

In summer of 2015, I was an Intern Application Developer at Northwestern mutual (Enterprise Project Solution department. OBA project. Milwaukee downtown), and I was helping scrum team by: Working mostly with Underscore.js, Backbone.js, and Backbone-forms module for front-end of outside business activity wizard web application, and also Node.js / Express.js for proof of concept work. As well as Adding grunt and bower to build the project's dependencies, Minify Java-Script files and perform package management and versioning. In addition to converting all of the outside business activity disclosure forms to the relational database format (IBM DB2 and SQLite), in addition to design wizard steps and paths to allow wizard web application fetch data and create forms. Lastly, I worked briefly with Java EE and Web-Sphere for back-end (WebUI and Web Services). I learned many valuable experiences by working there including: collaboration, being an effective team member and successfully delivering a software to the client.

I have finished my Undergraduate requirements in December 2014, and I took CS-657 and CS-530 (Computer Networks Laboratory) as a Graduate level, before officially starting Masters in Computer Science in Fall of 2015.
