I've always been inspired by the women at AIWA. Being an Armenian woman comes with responsibilities, especially being a mom of two daughters; we need to learn from the strength of the generations before us for guidance. I not only found this type of support at AIWA, but I also found my friends and inspiring women who I look up to. I admire their continuous work to reach out to and uplift the next generation.

AIWA events feed my soul as we connect on multiple levels. Intellectual, love of country, and love of friendships.

I joined AIWA to support Armenian women in STEM. It is essential for achieving diversity of perspectives, promoting gender parity, driving economic growth and inspiring future generations. It is simply an investment in a brighter future for all
