Hamed (Mahmood) Dehnavi
I was born and raised in Mashhad, Iran. With an emphasis on education and sports in my family, I grew up playing soccer, basketball, doing martial arts, hiking and loving math and physics. Consequently, I went to college to major in Mechanical Engineering. I also have a great passion for learning other cultures and languages. Lucky enough, I was granted a NASA scholarship to pursue a MSc at the Univ. of Hawaii at Manoa.
Since I moved to Hawaii, I've been blessed to meet wonderful people from different backgrounds and make great friends which has helped me flourish personally and professionally. I have absorbed and adopted the best of these new ideas and cultures, and have had the privilege of sharing my culture with people of other nationalities as well.
Living in Hawaii has also given me the advantage of being active and trying new sports; surfing has become my new passion. Needless to mention the amazing experience of snorkeling, scuba diving and hiking in this beautiful island.
I am looking forward to new adventures, learning about new cultures and meeting new people.
