My Love Story

In November 2024, fortune smiled upon me when I met Arezoo Ghanbari through Bumble. What started as a chance encounter quickly blossomed into something extraordinary. By February 2025, we began seriously dating, and I knew I had found something special.

Arezoo is not just my girlfriend and fiancée—she's the love of my life. She brings joy, balance, and perspective to my world of automation and engineering. Her support and partnership make every professional achievement more meaningful and every personal adventure more enriching. We encourage each other's dreams and aspirations.

Arezoo is a dedicated and passionate researcher who earned her Ph.D. in materials engineering. She now works at Bekaert in the R&I department, where she has turned her passion for corrosion into a career. As the corrosion expert, she is at the forefront of developing innovative solutions to protect materials from degradation.

Her intellectual curiosity and scientific drive are a constant source of inspiration.
