Chair: Sophie Pashayan
Senior – Class of 2026
Dias: Amelia Antonyan & Aleek Babahekian
My name is Sophie Pashayan, and I am a senior at Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian School who plans to major in psychobiology to pursue a career in medicine. I am actively involved in leadership and service, having served as president of a school club for two years, played varsity tennis for four years, and completed over 200 volunteer hours through community-based initiatives that support families and education, such as the Ronald McDonald House. Outside academics, I enjoy creating art, staying active through tennis, and engaging in creative projects. My interest in diplomacy stems from a strong curiosity about global issues, advocacy, and my cultural background, as well as my commitment to serving diverse communities. I value collaboration, empathy, and thoughtful leadership, and I look forward to applying these skills while continuing to grow as a globally minded leader.
