Hi! I’m Farhad, a Ph.D. student in Learning Design and Technology at Purdue University, College of Education. I’m dedicated to transforming education through AI, creating engaging, personalized learning experiences that are as impactful as they are innovative. With a strong foundation in TESOL and a deep passion for technology, I strive to make learning interactive, adaptable, and meaningful. After graduation, I look forward to shaping the future of instructional design—where technology and education intersect in powerful new ways.

 I come from an ESL background with years of experience teaching English to learners from diverse backgrounds. With a passion for visual design, an interest in gaming, and my teaching expertise, I chose LDT because it perfectly aligns with my skills and interests. I’m excited to continue learning and building new skills as I grow in this field.
