I have 5+ years of professional experience particularly in sustainability and environmental projects. I graduated from Swarthmore College with a B.A. in Environmental Studies with a focus in Political Science and pursued a Masters of Science degree in Sustainability Management from Columbia University. Throughout my career, I have been involved in various environmental initiatives, including agtech + sustainable agriculture, solar energy, climate adaptation + resilience, and environmental education. I recently finished my time as a Fulbright researcher, studying the climate resilience of smallholder farmers in Lori Province, Armenia.

I am also active in community development projects as the Co-Founder of Yerazad Coalition. My efforts with Yerazad include supporting displaced families from Artsakh through agricultural initiatives like beekeeping and greenhouse building. 2 greenhouses are currently being built for 4 displaced families.
