AZADEH YARAGHI BIOGRAPHY

Azadeh Yaraghi is an insightful brand strategist, marketing expert, thought-provoking speaker, #1 bestselling author, and founder of the branding agency Gogo Telugo Creatives. With 15+ years of international experience, she has built successful brands and earned several marketing awards along the way.

Azadeh’s journey began in the tumultuous environment of Tehran, Iran, amidst the Islamic Revolution and a war that spanned the first nine years of her life. In those trying times, she found solace and escape through crayons, sketching new worlds to counter the instability around her. This early experience sparked her artistic passions and her innate ability to see beyond people’s masks to their authentic selves, a skill she later coined as “branding.”

After surviving the war, Azadeh and her family relocated to Vancouver, Canada. Her academic pursuits led her to prestigious institutions like the University of British Columbia and Parsons School of Design. Eventually, she returned to Paris, where she thrived in a communication design agency serving Fortune 50 clients. Six years later, she moved back to Vancouver and founded Gogo Telugo, combining her artistic flair and strategic thinking to offer innovative solutions. Like the crayons that once saved her, Azadeh believes in the unique shade and story of each individual she encounters.

Azadeh Yaraghi is passionate about helping companies grow their business from the inside out. She is the ultimate “branding matchmaker” – helping purpose-driven companies attract and forge deeper connections with their ideal customers, shorten their sales cycle, and leave behind a positive and lasting legacy.

In her dynamic and interactive presentations, you can find Azadeh Yaraghi sharing her boundless enthusiasm, compelling stories, real-world examples, and fun exercises that will keep audience members laughing, engaged, and jazzed to immediately use what they’ve learned in their businesses and careers!

Whether it’s a 60-minute keynote or a longer interactive workshop, in-person or virtual, Azadeh Yaraghi will work closely with you and your team to make sure the messages, examples, and stories are custom fit for what your audience needs to hear so it always feels like her presentation was prepared just for them.

In her off hours, Azadeh Yaraghi also loves sharing her passion and giving back to her community. She is the President at the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers (BC Chapter), a proud mentor at Futurpreneur, an Advisory Board Member for the Healthy Heroes Foundation, and the past Communications Director at the Vancouver Board of Trade Sustainability Committee.

In her free time, Azadeh Yaraghi enjoys flamenco and salsa dancing (if there’s time in your workshop session, I’m sure she’d be happy to teach your audience a few moves), playing beach volleyball, and taking long walks along the seawall in spectacular Vancouver.
