WORLD ZOROASTRIAN YOUTH CONGRESS


My co-panelists at the World Zoroastrian Youth Congress held in Vancouver just a few days ago: Narges Nirumvala, a Dale Carnegie Sales Talk Champion and executive speech coach, Quantum Astrophysicist Nergis Mavalvala, recipient of a 2010 MacArthur Genius Grant and Professor at MIT, and myself, recipient of...nevermind.

Up next: a reading with Hari Kunzru on Thursday July 14th at SFU.
