“When I was a kid, we lived in Russia, but almost every summer my parents sent me to Armenia to live with my grandparents. I spent summers at their village house. I remember how much I missed the bright sun and the incredible nature of our village when I had to return to Russia. I wanted to live and to study in Armenia. So, my brightest childhood memory is Armenia and its warmth.”

“I would like to sing a duet with Serj Tankian. I’ve written a song for “7 Note Challenge”, organized by Serj Tankian and Creative Armenia. I hope they will notice it.”

“My achievements are mostly academic.”
