London (Pakistan News dot com dot pk) Zara Dar is an OnlyFans model whose announcement of dropping out of school to join OnlyFans surprised Pakistanis and many were forced to think about the Dar family in Pakistan, but she has no connection to the Pakistani Dar families.

Who is Zara Dar?

Zara Darz is a Texas-based content creator, engineer, and former PhD candidate in computer science who gained widespread attention in late 2024 for quitting academia to pursue a full-time career as an OnlyFans model.

Known initially for her educational YouTube videos on STEM topics like machine learning and neural networks, she has since pivoted to adult content creation while blending elements of her technical background into her new ventures.

Her story went viral after she shared details of her career switch, highlighting the financial success and personal risks involved.

Background and Early Career

Origins and Education: Born and raised in Austin, Texas, Zara has a mixed heritage including American, Persian, Southern European, Middle Eastern, and Indian roots. She holds a master’s degree in computer science from the University of Texas at Austin.

As a vocal advocate for women in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), she built a following by creating accessible tutorials on advanced topics like physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) and machine learning algorithms.

YouTube Presence: Her channel, @zara -dar, describes her as an “American STEM Gal” and has amassed over 169,000 subscribers.

Early content focused on empowering aspiring technologists, particularly women, through educational videos.

By mid-2024, she was pursuing a PhD but began experimenting with OnlyFans as a side hustle to avoid student loans.

In December 2024, Zara announced her decision to drop out of her PhD program in a candid YouTube video titled “PhD Dropout to OnlyFans Model”.

She described the choice as a “gamble on the direction of my entire life,” driven by burnout from academia, a desire for creative freedom, and the platform’s unexpected profitability. What started as supplemental income exploded into a multimillion-dollar enterprise:
