Remote

In an unplanned transition, I stepped up to lead an unfamiliar team in Tehran in the family business, after my father's passing. This marked a shift from my corporate background to managing our family business. During this transition, I handled customs clearance, streamlined deliveries, and facilitated the closure of our business, including legal matters and financial affairs.
