Kalimba

I was born and raised in Kerman, known in ancient times as the satrapy of Carmania, in an old
mansion decorated by magnificent artworks resembling old palaces in One Thousand and One
Nights collection of Middle Eastern folk tales compiled in the Islamic Golden Age and I can
remember my family tradition of reading Rumi and Ommar Khayam’s poems every night. My
mother always encouraged me to use my talents and gifts and never let others stop me from
being creative.
Back in junior high school, my concern was to produce content and share it among peers to
improve their academic and psychological level. When I realized that all school students were
enchanted when our principle announced something during the break time, I understood the
importance and value of the antenna and decided to form a group called School Radio with the
help of the school staff. I used to produce content at night, and during the day time, I used the
school loudspeakers to deliver extra-curricular educational materials to the children who were
walking in the yard during the break time. Soon I invited psychologists and education advisors
to have a talk with them and the children was listening to our conversations live.
During my school days, I got to know art groups like theater, and after gaining experience and
reading artistic books, I attended art festivals and managed to win awards three times in “Cultural
and Artistic Competitions” Festival when I was a school student. I have been awarded the
best theater actor and the best theater director.
After attending the Sharif University of Technology, I intensified my artistic activities and used
the educational facilities provided in Tehran, I participated in various training courses and was
able to work alongside the most prominent artists on the theater stages, in dubbing studios,
radio stations and Iranian cinema.
Having worked as a visual content specialist for several years, I felt the need to make my childhood
dreams come true and to achieve my full potential in myself.
Becoming an international media activist...
I have many talents which I assume they are like the gears of a gearbox that are currently not
well assembled and this gearbox needs to be adjusted and developed in order to achieve the
highest level of efficiency. I am trying to combine and arrange my talents, which are separated
like solo gears. By working in the media industry, and with the help of expert instructors and
colleagues, I am convinced that I can arrange them to work together in harmony to achieve the
best results.
I am of the opinion that we can use the miracle of media to build a better, more exciting and
peaceful life. I have many concerns in life including my passion for helping to solve these family,
social and political issues through educating people and portraying the beauty of life in the form
of motion pictures to make the planet a better place.
