I grew up in small suburb called Markham, but my worldview was shaped far beyond it. I spent my final two years of high school in Armenia at a United World College, learning alongside students from over 80 countries. That experience taught me how to collaborate, communicate, and build trust across cultural, political, and social differences—and fundamentally changed how I listen, create, and work with others.

I am continuing this global path at Minerva University, studying across cities like San Francisco, Tokyo, Buenos Aires, and Berlin. Through location-based coursework and civic projects, I learned to ground creative and business decisions in local context rather than assumptions. As a double major in Arts & Literature and Brand Management, I bring a globally informed, culturally sensitive perspective to collaboration and brand-building—driven by curiosity, adaptability, and a deep respect for different ways of thinking and working.
