I was born and raised in Tehran, Iran. I moved to Armenia in 2008 and completed my high school at the Iranian Embassy school in Yerevan. Immediately thereafter, I was admitted to my university of choice, AUA. I’m a recent graduate, having obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Business in summer 2019. During my studies, I majored in Marketing and pursued a minor in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics. I was active on campus, serving on AUA Volunteer’s League club, working as a PR member of “The Bridge” newspaper, and volunteering with the Admissions office as a Student Ambassador. In my junior and senior years of study, I had the privilege of working for AUA's Admissions office as a Work-Study student. Today, I continue my work in the Admissions office full-time as a Data Specialist where I analyze and evaluate admissions information, online application forms, and work to continually streamline our application system to create a better online user experience.
