Tell us about yourself along with a fun fact!
My name is Golara, and I graduated from University of Virginia with a dual major in chemistry and studio arts with concentration in painting. I’d like to introduce myself as a multi-disciplinary hybrid with an intense passion for science, art and business.
Fun fact about me is that I was born in Iran but I like to dance Argentine tango to Vivaldi’s four seasons!
