This episode contains language and topics that may not be suitable for younger listeners. Listener discretion is advised.

An Iranian/American actor, writer and activist, Pooya was born and raised in Tehran, Iran, based in New York City. She moved to New York in her teens, where she studied design at Fashion Institute of Technology, and after joining the FIT theatre ensemble, she discovered her love of acting and story telling. She is a graduate from the esteemed Maggie Flanigan Studio.

She seeks stories that speak to her, with rich, three dimensional characters, good and bad, while exploring their humanity and fragility.

She's fluent in Persian(Farsi), a Transgender advocate, as well as a voice for immigrants’ and women’s issues in addition to writing and co-writing original LGBT stories to shed light on an otherwise under represented community.
