In Shabnam's own words

Over the course of my career as a journalist specialising in international affairs, I have had the privilege to cover some of the most critical diplomatic events of recent years. From the early stages of the Iran nuclear negotiations, including the original JCPOA talks in Vienna and subsequent revival discussions, to the Iran–United States bilateral engagements, I have consistently reported from the heart of the diplomatic process. My experience extends to covering numerous United Nations events, the IAEA Board of Governors meetings in Vienna, and the Munich Security Conference, among other major global political gatherings. Along this path, I have worked alongside and learned from some of the most respected international journalists, an experience for which I remain deeply grateful.
