A PhD Student in Learning Design & Technology
I'm a doctoral student in Learning Design and Technology at Purdue University, where my research examines how generative AI can support personalized learning, how we assess AI literacy in higher education, and how learner behavior patterns can inform program design. I bring over a decade of experience as a language educator and teacher trainer across Iran, Turkey, and Canada to my work as a researcher and instructional designer. I'm a research assistant on the NSF-funded DEAP project and an instructional designer for the Educating Character Initiative, where I develop AI literacy modules for undergraduate computing students.

Beyond the work itself: a decade teaching across three continents has shaped how I think about learner diversity. The map below traces where that journey has taken me.
Story maps is an excellent classroom tool, allowing learners to share their backgrounds and stories with peers in an engaging and collaborative way.
