I am

Afra Asadi

Management Information System, Marketing, and Sales Student

My Story

My journey begins in my homeland of Iran, specifically in Esfahan, where I was raised by entrepreneurial parents who ran their own businesses. Growing up, I quickly grasped the importance of perseverance, determination, and ambition, realizing that these qualities, coupled with unwavering dedication and resilience, pave the path to success. Despite my fondness for Iran's rich cultural heritage, my parents made the pivotal decision to relocate to the United States when I was 14, seeking greater freedoms and educational opportunities for my sister and me.

My high school years commenced in Fort Bend ISD, known for its diversity, culminating in graduation from Lawrence E. Elkins High School in 2017. Transitioning into college life at the University of Houston, I pursued a double major in Management Information Systems (MIS) and Marketing, laying the foundation for my career aspirations. Currently, I am immersed in the nation's premier sales program, undergoing intensive live sales training totaling 220 hours.

My multicultural background has also led me to enriching experiences abroad, studying briefly in Copenhagen, Denmark, and London, United Kingdom, in the spring semester of 2020. I attribute much of my strength and independence to my family's upbringing, shaping me into the empowered woman I am today. Through my journey, I aspire to inspire others and make a meaningful impact in the world.

Testimonials

  • “As Afra's CRM team lead, I have seen nothing but consistency and curiosity from her! She never backs down from a challenge and doesn't hesitate to ask for help when she doesn't know the answer, leading to her earning $900 in ONE golf sale! As one of my most hard-working students, I highly recommend her for anyone who is looking for a curious and persistent salesperson."

    Brittney Nguyen

  • “Afra is someone who will absolutely do her part even when plans change at the last second, even when it was supposed to be someone else's responsibility, even when mistakes are made and even when emergencies come up. We had a team member require immediate surgery and Afra took over their role immediately, without a second thought and performed well."

    Phoenix Pittman

  • “I highly recommend Afra for her exceptional leadership and dedication during a challenging period. When our other Director of Marketing was out for surgery, Afra stepped up, ensuring seamless operations and maintaining project momentum. Their proactive approach, strong teamwork, and commitment to excellence, and humor make her a valuable asset to any organization.
