Bio
My journey as a lawyer has taken me through several very different and rewarding paths. After graduating, I began my legal career at the RA Court of Appeal, where I gained a strong foundation in the judicial system. I later moved into the corporate world, working for a large IT company, before realizing that I was most inspired by work with a meaningful social impact. That led me to UWC Dilijan six years ago, where I found a community that truly feels like home. I love being part of an educational environment that brings together young people from diverse backgrounds and encourages them to make a difference in the world. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, discovering new cultures, reading, listening to music, and spending time with my family and friends. I believe that learning never stops and that the relationships we build are among life's greatest rewards.  

Who is your role model or mentor or who inspires you?
If I had to name one person, it would be my mom. She has always inspired me with her kindness, resilience, and unwavering support for our family. Beyond that, I don't have a single role model I am inspired by people who stay true to their values while making a positive difference in the lives of others. I also learn a great deal from my kids, friends and colleagues I work with every day.

What is your life motto?
I don't really have a life motto. Instead, I believe in making the most of every day, embracing new experiences, and appreciating the people and moments that make life meaningful.

What are the three things you can't imagine your life without?
My family, nature and opportunities to explore the world through travel. They keep me grounded, curious, and inspired.

What do you like to do in your spare time?
I enjoy traveling and discovering new cultures, reading and spending quality time with my family. Whether it's exploring a new place or enjoying a quiet evening with a good book, I appreciate experiences that help me learn, connect, and recharge.
