During her formative years in Iran, Nazar loved reading. Her mother often encouraged her daughter to become a writer, but sadly, time ran out and her mother was lost to pancreatic cancer in 2011. Though she wishes her mother were here to see it, Nazar is proud to finally fulfil that promise.
Moving to Canada and then the US, Nazar worked in both private and public sector companies. She realized there was an urgent need to improve oral health education and decided to combine her business acumen with her creative drive.
