I am an outdoor enthusiast, hiker, trail builder and very passionate about recreation infrastructure.
I have been involved in trail development projects since 2017. I started my career as a volunteer coordinator then worked as a camp manager for the 1st international trail building camp in Armenia (The Transcaucasian Trail). During this project I have been also involved in trail design, building and maintenance training by US experts for 3 months.
I have been working with Trails For Change NGO for 7 years now. Since 2017 with our team we have been working with local communities, protected areas and botanical gardens developing tourism infrastructures and building trails around villages and inside the PAs.
During 2017-2023 I have been involved in more than 20 projects which developed 1000 km+ trails, 10+ bridges, 1 accessible trail in 6 regions of Armenia.
I am also involved in Caucasus Conservation Corps and and Youth for Change Conservation Corps Programs funded by the U.S.Forest Service IP.
