Alia spent her college years learning to juggle and roll around on the ground–some people call it theater school–at Southern Methodist University. While there, she focused on directing and production and found herself in Iran following an underground dance troupe.  

 

She has produced and directed independent theater in Dallas and was one of the creators of Dallas’ popular Shakespeare in the Bar series. Alia has since transitioned from the stage to the studio by way of the corporate startup world. When she isn’t overseeing content at Spoke Media, she is coming up with creative ways to prank those she loves.
