Feel free to find me on LinkedIn or Facebook too :) Good day! I'm a Graduate Researcher at UC Berkeley traveling up and down California's west coast with two research colleagues for vacation. We come from a wide range of cultural backgrounds - Persian, South Asian, Latin American - representing a good quarter of the world! We have professional experience in renewable energy sectors domestically and abroad. and are passionate about our future and finding a sustainable means of preserving our planet. We come from community - and are relaxed, respectful, and love to learn about the world through the lens of the people we meet. We're excited to meet you, and look forward to sharing a cup of tea :) A bit more about me: I research California's bioenergy sector at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and study Energy Policy at the Goldman School. I'm a musician, and produced my first EP, Paradise, a few years back: jahonmusic.bandcamp.com I love food and Persian cooking - having studied urban agriculture, farmed, and worked with several community gardens.
