Who I Am

Engineering with
precision.

I'm a Marine Engineering student at Amirkabir University of Technology (Tehran Polytechnic), ranked among the top 10% of my cohort, with a strong foundation in naval architecture, marine systems design and structural optimization.

I work across the full engineering loop — from concept sketches and CAD surfaces in CATIA V5 to hydrodynamic and structural simulation in Ansys, scripted with Python for optimization. Industrial internships at Iran's largest shipyard and a classification society shaped a practical, standards-driven mindset.

Beyond the sea, I care about anything that demands rigorous engineering: computational tools, automation, research methodology and clean technical documentation.
