Keeping up with the times: Iran Edition

Born and raised in Iran, and having attended the University of Tehran where she received a BS in Industrial Design, Shiva is an entrepreneur.  She later moved to the US, where she received her Masters in Industrial Design at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.   Shiva currently lives in Portland, Oregon, where she is working on a host of projects including in-it, a video-based social media campaign that’s intended to help individuals spread awareness about issues they are passionate about. I’m excited to have Shiva on the show today to discuss her work, as well as the continuing development of Iran-US relations.    You can support our podcast by donating to the gofundme.
