Afa began his journey in architecture, earning his first degree and establishing a successful firm in Iran alongside his wife. Over the years, he completed numerous residential projects, gaining a wealth of experience as a licensed architect. 

His passion for art and design blossomed through his work, encompassing architectural representations, graphic designs, and participation in various competitions. This deepening interest ultimately led him to explore new creative avenues. 

After relocating to Canada, Afa pursued a second degree in video game design. This shift marked a transition from the physical construction of spaces to the creation of virtual worlds, yet his core focus on design, creativity, and problem-solving remained steadfast. He finds every aspect of the design process endlessly fascinating. 

Afa's childhood dream of becoming a renowned architect found an unexpected outlet when he performed in a play, sharing his story at the Festival TransAmériques in 2018. This experience highlighted his enduring commitment to his craft and his ability to inspire others through his journey.
