Her MS dissertation is titled ‘Mythological Study Of Izad Vayu Deity’s Character Based On Ram-Yasht’. She is the prospective Ph.D student and researcher of this field in Humanities Research University of Iran.

Her recently published illustrative books in Farsi and in three series, titled, ‘Teaching Of Din-Dabireh Alphabets’ are used in Avestan classes in Iran as the official resource for teaching Din-Dabireh alphabets to Zoroastrian children and youth.
