"I have been a member of the Iranian American Bar Association since I became an attorney. As an Iranian American attorney, I believe it is important to not only be an active member of your legal community, but to also be an active member of the Iranian community. Being on the board of IABAOC brings both of these goals together. The mission this organization has to educate and inform the Iranian American community and American public at large about legal issues of interest is an important cause that I believe in and find valuable to further. As a member of the board, I have had the opportunity to meet amazing people and that, in and of itself, makes all the work we do so worthwhile."
