A main interest of mine is theology and religious history. I’ve explored this passion through practice, culture, and research.

Practice

Since preschool I’ve sung in my church choir and for the past three years I’ve assisted the Choir Director for the youngest choirs. I was the only youth representative elected to the Nominating Committee. I serve on the Children and Family Ministries Committee, and this fall I began serving as a Ruling Elder on Session.

Culture

I co-founded my school’s Armenian Club with my sister. I served as co-president for two years, and president this year, teaching Armenian history, language, and culture to students of every background — Armenian and not.

Research

At Princeton’s Department of History, I work as a research assistant to Professor Jack Tannous, analyzing and cataloging primary sources for his project on Christian-Muslim relations in the early Middle East.
