About
My name is Yasamin, but family and friends call me Yasi.
I’m from Iran, specifically this really cool city called Rasht (like really cool XD).
I completed my bachelor’s degree in computer engineering. Through this degree, I realized I am not a fan of hardware, math, and algorithms. But I still loved computers and technology! However, an internship, a bootcamp, and a few projects later, I realized that I love HCI and anything that is about the relationship between humans and robots, AI, and (you name it ) technology. Oh also, I used to be an IT specialist for like 3 years!
Anyways, aside from the academic and work stuff, you can find me enjoying shopping, dancing, exploring the city, watching movies and shows, and listening to music.
Also, I’m a dog person, and I think that’s really important. (That’s my little girl Cookie in the photo.)
Finally, I really love Tennis. I play occasionally, and would love to play with anyone who’s good at it!
