Dr. Mahsa Hojat-Khoshniyat was born in Iran and had the pleasure of growing up with the cultural values of empathy, humility, being humble, hardworking, and caring. As a part of my cultural values, from very early on, I learned the importance of human value, dignity, and respect despite race, culture, circumstances, socioeconomic status, or education. I learned the value of perseverance, believing in oneself, standing for what is right, and not giving up even when it gets hard. It was especially helpful as I also grew up in Iran, an amazingly beautiful country filled with kind, educated, and progressive people and rich history.

I learned the value of perseverance, believing in oneself, standing for what is right, and not giving up even when it gets hard. It was especially helpful as I also grew up in Iran, an amazing beautiful country filled with kind, educated, and progressive people and reach history. Growing up in a country that represented strengths and resilience as well as fear of my rights being violated, created a situation to have empathy for others while taking any opportunity offered as most important. From experiences of judgement, control, bullying, not understanding and feeling lonely, I learned to be resilient.
