PRIORITISING SPORT
She says she focused on sport over a career in chemistry as she struggled to combine the two. "I got my master's degree in chemistry but unfortunately I couldn't pursue a career in the field. Working and doing professional sport was tough. That's why I had to choose one over the other. Being a chemist required continuous lab work and it wasn't really possible for me to go to training camps." (iran-varzeshi.com, 20 May 2018)

OCCUPATION
She works as a mayoral employee in the Islamic Republic of Iran. (Athlete, 25 Aug 2021)
