Fueled by curiosity and work that fuses purpose with passion, I love exploring new industries through creative work and breaking down complex ideas, products or services into digestible words and visuals.
I like teaming up with global minded individuals and organizations who aren't afraid to tackle major issues or ride the waves of change and disruption; those who think big, and aim to connect people around the world or create powerful impact in their communities.

More about me
Born in Armenia and raised in rainy Seattle, I grew up between the unique influences of west coast chill vibes and classic European culture. This led me to major in international business at the University of Washington, study and work across the world in France, and eventually move to booming San Francisco. My cross-atlantic work adventures included consulting at a Fortune 500 company, marketing at a start-up, and generating partnerships and new business at the local branch of an international nonprofit.
I spent the last few years at WE Communications (formerly Waggener Edstrom), a global public relations powerhouse, where I planned and produced thoughtful events, advanced the agency's new business efforts, and managed and expanded WE's award-winning internship program. I supported corporate PR teams with company-wide storytelling campaigns and global launches, and learned the crisis comms ropes while easing the aftermath of major cybersecurity incidents.
More importantly though, at WE I met influencers, thought leaders and pundits pointing to the disruption headed for every industry and every country, thanks to the tidal wave of tech. I discovered that problems will continue to grow, but so will the opportunity to not only spot and solve them, but build something better. I'd like to help entrepreneurs, businesses, communities and my own ideas flourish in the face of change. So let's work together to shape the future — and bring a brilliantly colorful, harmonious, collective vision of it to life.
