I completed an online Gaelic course from St. Anna's Gaelic College. I have a black belt in Tae Kwon do. I’ve played the violin for 5 years. I am in my school’s concert band, math league, newspaper committee and I have been assisting the Antigonish Community Science Center for 6 years, and plan on teaching a robotics workshop for this year's summer’s camp. My interests range from computer science, neurology, math and science to history. I want to design an electric-powered car and to make a human useable AI interface. I enjoy literature from the 1800s like Fyodor Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment and Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Gray. Also I like fantasy/fiction books like the Dragon Lance and Silverwing trilogies. I listen to rock, alternative, hip-hop, Celtic and intrumental music and play various video games. I am fluent in Farsi, English and learning Gaelic and French. I am very close to starting my own independent game development company. |
