Hi everyone! I am a second year geosciences Masters student. I am on the third floor, where you will find me using remote sensing to find the terminus ablation rates for glaciers in Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland). I received my Bachelors in Geomatics Engineering from Tribhuvan University, Nepal and moved to Boise last year to start working on graduate school here at BSU! Outside of research I love hiking, traveling, floating the river, and playing basketball. I am enthusiastic about carrying forward the excellent initiatives to foster a spirit of togetherness and belonging within the department.

I was born and grew up in Iran and I received my bachelor’s in Geology from Shiraz University (former Pahlavi). In 2006, my husband and I moved to Australia to pursue grad studies, where I did a master’s in Environmental Sciences and worked in one of the biggest OSL labs (CABAH-research center) at the University of Wollongong (UOW) for over 10 years. We then lived in Europe for a couple of years before moving to the United States in August 2022. My research passion has been always around soil and agriculture and hopefully, I will get a good job done here!
