I am a Persian-American seasoned model and professional swing dancer in the DC metro area.  Please see my listed resume below of my modeling and acting work. 

Conveniently, my home is located near the Huntington metro which is a few blocks outside the Capital Beltway, fortifying my location with readily available transportation.  As an Alexandria native, I own and drive my car regularly to non-metro accessible locations.

Thank you for your time and consideration.  Please let me know if I can be of assistance to your organization.  I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
