    ANC-WR Intern Spotlight: Amy Kaladzhyan


    Los Angeles, CA - As one of five Interns for the Armenian National
    Committee - Western Region's Summer 2008 Internship - Externship
    Program (ANC-WR IEP), Amy Kaladzhyan has gained valuable knowledge and
    experience within the public and media relations field. In addition to
    building media relationships, Kaladzhyan writes feature articles and
    press releases spotlighting ANC activists and various organizations.

    In past weeks, Kaladzhyan and fellow Public and Media Relations
    Intern, Tamar Tavlian, have also been developing a promotional video
    detailing the Internship-Externship Program and are putting the
    finishing touches on two sets of video blogs featuring their fellow
    Interns and Externs.

    "I feel that this program offers a great opportunity for Armenian
    youth to get involved in politics while, at the same time, helping out
    with a cause that they believe in," said Kaladzhyan. "Working
    alongside the ANC-WR in Sacramento and in Santa Barbara, I feel that I
    have acquired skills that are necessary in my future line of work,"
    she added.

    Kaladzhyan currently attends University of California at Santa Barbara
    (UCSB) where she majors in Global Studies. After graduating, she plans
    to attend Law School and eventually enter the broadcast journalism
    field as a political reporter.

    Besides being an Intern at ANC-WR, Kaladzhyan is also an intern at
    KTLA and is a member of the Armenian Students' Association (ASA) at
    UCSB. While raising awareness of the Anti-Defamation League's (ADL)
    opposition to Congressional recognition of the Armenian Genocide in
    Sacramento during Advocacy Day in April, Kaladzhyan learned about the
    IEP from Haig Hovsepian, ANC-WR Community Relations Director, and was
    eager to sign up and continue her work with the Armenian community.

    The Armenian National Committee - Western Region is the largest and
    most influential Armenian American grassroots advocacy organization in
    the Western United States. Working in coordination with a network of
    offices, chapters, and supporters throughout the Western United States
    and affiliated organization around the country, the ANC-WR advances
    the concerns of the Armenian American community on a broad range of
    issues.
