Analytical, Creative, and Enterprising, Vahid loves to learn, write about, discuss, share, teach, innovate, and generally do any and all things related to software development, government policy, mindfulness, business development, cognitive psychology, and data analytics – though not necessarily in that order.
When he is not writing posts or reviews for his blog, Vahid is working on one of his several projects or further developing his coding skillset. He enjoys good food, tennis, poetry, board games, hiking, coffee, and any time spent with friends and family.
