The People’s Artist

The People’s Artist

I'm truly honored to be selected as a nominee for The People's Artist — and I need your vote if you have a minute!

About Me

I'm a Persian American artist with a background in business and tech. Almost a year ago, I made a decision that changed everything: I walked away from a high-paying job in corporate America and a comfortable lifestyle to chase my passion for art.

Since then, I've attended two artist residencies — one in Portugal and one in Philadelphia — and I've chosen art over certainty every single day. It hasn't always been easy, but it has always been worth it.

Why This Competition Matters

That journey has now led me to Johnny Depp's People's Artist competition — and what makes this one truly special is who decides the winner. It's not a panel of judges or an industry committee. It's you — the people.

If you believe in this journey, I'd be so grateful for your vote. Every single vote counts and makes a real difference. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
