Personal Statement including hobbies, interests, family, etc.: I like walking in the rain and in the snow, I like singing and playing music, I like creating something which would please my family and my friends, and I like dreaming of everything.

My family consists of my mother, father and two sisters.

In 1994, I went to the secondary school #62 and to T.Chukhajian Music School where I specialized in the violin. I also took piano, trumpet, choir and other classes, and was involved in an ensemble as a violinist. From 1997 until 2000, I also participated in the Moush Folk Song Ensemble. In 2001, I finished with music school and focused on my secondary school studies.

While attending secondary school, I was employed at a furniture workshop. In 2004, I was envolved in a severe accident when a heavy piece of metal fell from a truck onto my back. As a result of this accident, I received a spinal injury. I was operated on and then took my rehabilitation course at the IPTRC. At that time, I got acquainted with the activities of the Paros Chamber Choir and wanted to join the Choir.

I have participated in several concerts, as well as the tour of Paros to France in 2005. I am very happy to have an opportunity to socialize with Paros members.
