My name is Susanna Minasaryan and I was born in Armenia, in Vedi, but grew up in Artashat. At the age of 13 I moved with my family to Russia, to Anapa.

I am a graphic designer by profession and currently I study programming. 

Even during the move I thought that this would be temporary, but by the age of 20 I realized that this is not so. In 2020, I decided to visit the Armenian community for the first time, as I urgently felt the need to be closer to my roots. Our initial goal was only charity projects, but over time this has changed.

We realized the significance of education and cultural awareness of young people. We began to organize cultural and creative evenings that were dedicated to Armenian poets or heroes. Over time we formed our team - Nor Hayq.

Part of our ideology is the word “together” - we always try to cooperate with different organizations and people, we believe that the contribution of each person is very important. Thus, as a graphic designer I helped many other organizations design educational posts and never hesitated to help.

As a Diaspora Youth Ambassador I want to influence the efficiency of diaspora structures, promote healthy ideology and show people the opportunities that await them in Armenia.
