After graduating from Drury University, in Springfield, MO. in 1974, I worked at Bechtel in Norwalk, CA. As my father was Iranian, I moved to Tehran mid 1976, and worked at Pars Data Systems, a JV of Electronic Data Systems with AME Foundation, working for Paul W. Bucha, the EDS Country manager. https://www.google.com/search?q=Paul+W+Bucha&rlz=1C5CHFA_enUS993US993&oq=Paul+W+Bucha&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggAEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg70gEIMzc1OGowajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I was eventually recruited by my father to run his foundation, which owned various JVs with Multinationals, including, EDS, Bell Helicopters, Bristow Helicopters, Fokker Aircraft, Siemens. I was caught up in the 1978 coming Islamic Revolution, which I barely escaped on November 15, 1978, after I ordered our expats out of the country.

Two EDSers refused to leave due to EDS being owed some $25 million by the government. Paul Chiapparone and Bill Gaylord, were captured and spent time in the notorious Qasr Prison. Ross Perot, the Founder of EDS, eventually mounted reission to rescue the two, and once they were free, according to Paul W. Bucha who was the country manager for EDS, told me Perot paid Ken Follett $1 Million to write the book "On Wings Of Eagle" - While it is great read, Bucha told me a lot of it is fiction.

I am the founding shareholder of the M. Group Resorts S.A., which originally built Jalousie Plantation Resort & Spa between 1989 and 1992 and operated it until sold in 2005, now the Viceroy Sugar Beach in St Lucia. In 2013 I founded Idria Energy www.IdriaEnergy.com.

I began work while in college in Missouri, flying for the Federal Prison System in 1972. After college, I spent two years at a number of U.S. Multi-National Defense Contractors, including Hughes Aircraft and Rockwell International, including Bechte.

I moved to Iran in 1976 and worked with Pars Data Systems. Later I joined his father’s organization, providing oversight as a director of ParsAir, a JV with Fokker Aircraft, Iranian Helicopters, a JV Bristow Helicopters and INECO a JV with Siemens. I then served as the Managing Director / Trustee of the Abolfath Mahvi Cultural Foundation which managed some 30 subsidiaries, including INECO, which together with Siemens built Iran 1 and 2 Nuclear Power Stations.

As a result of the Islamic Revolution of 12/1978, all assets were lost to the revolutionaries.

Post the 1979 Islamic Revolution, I restarted a career in real estate development, overseeing the construction of projects in California and Missouri, including the 350 San Diego condominiums known as Mission Plaza, and then the largest Industrial Park in Springfield, Missouri, Airport Commerce Park, an Industrial Park in San Juan Capistrano, California, a low-rise office complex in Newport Beach, California, two hotels in London, and the Onslow Hotel and Plaza Hotel.

In 1982 I founded Hardill International, a MIL SPEC manufacturing company, which was sold to Litton Aerospace. Hardill manufactured the F16 fighter landing gear, the VHB-80, and 45 Jackhammer, and the SunTwin® heaters, which are still, now 30 years later, on the market.

I also founded Aviotex in 1987. The company was the first entity to adapt the AT&T North American Presentation Level Protocol Syntax (NAPLPS) videotext system for the digitized transmission of weather information to pilots and mariners. The technology is now being used by all television stations for their moving weather maps. While operating Aviotex, I addressed the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, 99th Congress, 2nd session, Joint Aviation Sub-Committee. The lobbying effort resulted in release of the F.A.A.’s RFP for the development and supply of the Direct User Access Terminal (“DUAT”) system; the project was then valued at over $500 million.

The DUAT system is now the sole source of Aviation Weather to pilots in the United States and Canada. Before moving to Ohio in 1990, he transferred the technology ownership to Aviotex’s sister company World Weatherwatch, Inc., Toronto, Canada, to access Canadian government aviation contracts and then sold the technology.

In 1989-1992 I built and then managed the world-acclaimed Jalousie Plantation Resorts & Spa resort located on the world's newest UNESCO's World Heritage Site, now known as Viceroy Sugar Beach, until 2005.

In 1990 I was the Managing Director of Idria Oil & Gas Company, which carried out an oil exploration project in the Republic of Panama, drilling three exploratory wells for the government of Panama. In 1990, Idria facilitated a contract for NIDC for the re-drilling / re-working of 53 deep wells, a $258 Million dollar contract. Though Idria’s 12 rigs were confiscated by the government with the intent to force a sale, the job was completed in 1992 on budget and on time.

While living in Ohio I founded Idria Energy, LLC in 2013. That same year I consulted for CKR Global Advisory Board, recruiting law firms for CKR Law, now Jingsh Law USA, taking their footprint global. Currently, the law firm has offices around the globe, including in Akron, Ohio.

In 2016 I was wrongfully attacked by a rogue prosecutor, James Flaiz, who was duped by his Investigator, Karen Sweet into believing that I was an "Iranian Muslim Royalty" who had gamed the system Medicaid. Being young and, at the time, inexperienced, Flaiz jumped into the pool by going public on WKYC-TV on September 2, 2016, prior to any in-depth investigation, Indicting, Arraigning, Convicting and Sentencing him to 4 years in a Federal Prison.

By October 15 of that year, Flaiz realized his gross errors, but was forced to move forward with the case and the sham trial of October 2017. As on the found advise of the FBI, I refused to accept any pleas, Flaiz, with the help of the Bench Trial Judge, Forrest Burt, extorted my defense counsel to do a bad job. It worked.

In 2020 Attorney George Vorys was asked by the office of the Gov of Ohio to review the case file consisting of 4 four-inch binders of documents, consisting of several thousand pages of documents, to determine if I was factually innocent of the charges made by Flaiz. By April 7, 2023, after having spent 2000 hours of Pro Bono investigative time, Mr. Vorys declared that I am factually innocent of the charges. That said, the State of Ohio being a Home Rule State, the Governor and Attorney General of Ohio have complicated maneuvering to exonerate me.

To assist the process, I hvae taken my case to the court of Public Opinion to prevent Mr. Flaiz and his assistant to ever run for public office. The reports generated by Mr. Vorys is post to www.pascalmahvi.com
