Personal
Her mother is a dentist, her father is a doctor, and she has two brothers and a dog....Her favorite food is avocado salad and her favorite subject in school is history....The thing she credits most to her involvement in synchro is her hometown club, the New Canaan Y Aquianas, for inspiring and helping her reach her goals....She is motivated by the dream to compete on the largest world stage with her incredible teammates by my side. Her goal is to be part of the team that improves the ranking of the United States internationally....If not synchro, then gymnastics....After her synchro career is over, she wants to be an active participant in this sport as well as become the president of the United States....She was a finalist for Miss Connecticut in 2014....Her first language is Armenian, followed by English and Bulgarian.Career Highlights
