Hi! My name is Leea.
I am a graduate student in the Masters of Design program at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, where my focus is on the themes of culture, identity, food and storytelling. In my personal practice, I gravitate towards projects that allow me to rediscover my roots as a Zoroastrian through these lenses.
My work combines storytelling, food, community building and Graphic design. During my undergraduate studies, I designed projects that explored food, identity and community building, including my thesis project which was based on my own ethno-religious community, the Parsis.

Research question: How may we connect the Zoroastrian youth of North America to their roots, traditions and culture?
