Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sarvenaz=female. Not sure why.

And then there's Durham's so called public transportation. My 10 mile commute = 2 hours, each way on it. And I'm going from a major Durham neighborhood to a major Durham employment area. So, yeah, I feel dw's pain. Except for the part where I've just given up and drive in.

Oh, but PS: as a person with a gender-neutral first name, I always appreciate it when people don't assume.
Not that Sarvenaz appears to be gender-neutral.
