SOFIA SHAKHPAZYAN
3-rd year Undergraduate Student in English and Communications

Hola! I am Sofia, one of the enthusiastic and knowledgeable students of AUA. I am a senior student majoring in English and Communications. I was born in Gyumri, however I grew up in region Armavir. Ever since my teenage years, I have been passionate about teaching and translating. Growing up I made a decision to pursue them as my future careers. Getting accepted to AUA was one of the first steps in my career. I can say for sure becoming a student in this university has been by far the best experience of my life. Throughout my years of study, I accomplished many great things, such as becoming a student ambassador, peer mentor, and of course a work study student.

AUA is the place where not only you can get a lot of knowledge and experience, but also lots of new connections. To me AUA is like a melting pot of different cultures, viewpoints and moral values which help us to shape and form ourselves. I met lots of wonderful people who are an inseparable part of my life now and without AUA I definitely would not have been able to meet them. So take your chance and come to AUA!
