She holds an M.A. in Investigative Journalism from Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication and a B.A. in English and Communications from the American University of Armenia (AUA).

She is currently an adjunct lecturer at AUA. Her work focuses on shaping stories that inform, inspire, and contribute to a deeper understanding of the world.
