OLBIOS CORRESPONDENT ARMENIA

I was born in Yerevan, Armenia and raised both in my hometown and Los Angeles, California. Due to my experience in both countries with fundamentally different cultures, I’ve grown to become an individual with a very broad worldview. I am bilingual (Armenian and English), but I also speak Russian (fluent) and German (basic).   While still a BA student in Manoogian Simone College of Business and Economics of the American University of Armenia (AUA), I gained my minor degree in Politics, Philosophy and Economics from AUA school of Humanities and Social Sciences (2017). I’ve been a junior project assistant of the joint program of the Ministry of Nature Protection of RA and the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), where I later continued my internship experience (2016-17). I am currently a PR associate in Development Foundation of Armenia (DFA). I am trying to use the knowledge I have gained from working in governmental institutions in the search for a sustainable solution for women’s empowerment and employment while being a resident of an incubation program at the Entrepreneurship and Product Innovation Center (EPIC).
