Pejman Azarmina (Persian: پژمان آذرمینا, born in 1973) is an Iranian-American scholar, entrepreneur, musician and thinkocrat.  After 15 years of pursuing a career in the pharmaceutical industry (most of which being at Pfizer), he joined UCLA as a faculty member to establish the Office of Physician-Scientist Career Development within the David Geffen School of Medicine. Earlier in his career, his interest in leadership development led to the formation of multiple tools, projects and initiatives aiming to develop the next generation of holistic leaders and systems thinkers under the umbrella term of Thinkocrats.
 Azarmina published Common Medical Terms, an evidence-based medical dictionary, in 1995 as a student project leading a team of seven editors and 22 term-finders, which was recognized as the best student book in 1997. In 2001, he authored six bestselling titles named "My Doctor" describing medical topics in plain language for the public.  In 2017, he co-authored the Sexuality Education Wheel of Context that introduces a "context analysis" practical framework for change agents working in sexuality education.
 Azarmina is also a concert musician and santour instructor. He has released 5 music albums, published two sheet music and wrote three chapters of Love Dynasty, a multimedia encyclopedia for Persian Music. His first solo album, Old Persian Dances, was released in 1996 and contained novel rearrangements of old dance forms from the original repertoire for Persian music. His next album, Shabdiz, contained a collection of his compositions for solo and two santours. Azarmina's next albums, Persian Nostalgia and Rebellious Solitude, were released in the US and contained fine renderings of some Persian music masterpieces and advanced repertoire for the santoor. His latest album is a full performance of master Payvar's advanced repertoire for the Santour  with video recordings available on his YouTube channel.
 Azarmina had also been involved in philanthropic activities by being the Vice-Chair of Leadership and Professional Development Forum at Public Affairs Alliance of Iranian Americans (PAAIA) NexGen NY and by developing and offering several leadership and professional development programs and workshop for young and talented Iranian-Americans in New York and California.
 Azarmina was born in Tehran, Iran; started studying the santour at age 11 with Master Faramarz Payvar (1933‒2009) and graduated from his private class after completing the 'Advanced Repertoire for the Santour' (Persian: ردیف چپ کوک) in 1994.   His other music teachers include Hossein Dehlavi (music theory, harmony and songwriting) and Ahmad Pejman (composition and counterpoint).
 Azarmina's style of performance is perhaps one of the closest to that of late Master Payvar, yet his interpretation of Persian music is very lean, expressive, and contemporary.
 Azarmina studied medicine at Tehran University of Medical Sciences (1992‒1999), completed a master's degree in Healthcare Management at University of Surrey (2003‒2005) and obtained a graduate certificate in Medical Informatics from Oregon Health & Science University (2007) and a certificate in coaching from New York University (2011).
