Prior to pivoting to the fintech industry, Ms. Salehi Esmati provided policy advice on international security matters to governments, think tanks, while leading a team of researchers at Carleton University. She made use of the critical, analytical and strategic thinking taught to her at the University of Toronto and Harvard where she earned a bachelor’s and master’s degree in government studies.
