    ANC-WR Intern Spotlight: Hovanes Gasparian

    Los Angeles, CA - Hovanes Gasparian is making his mark. As one of
    seven interns for the Armenian National Committee - Western Region's
    Summer 2008 Internship - Externship Program (ANC-WR IEP), Gasparian
    has engaged himself in the fast-paced world of government and public
    affairs. As a Community and Government Affairs intern, Gasparian has
    been actively scheduling August Congressional Recess Meetings to
    continue the Armenian American community's strong relationships with
    elected officials throughout the western United States.

    "My position as a Government and Community Affairs intern has given me
    first-hand experience in the political process in terms of contacting
    and communicating with Members of Congress," stated Gasparian. "I
    really enjoy the opportunity of working with community leaders and
    student activists while learning about the Armenian Cause," he added.

    Gasparian currently attends UC Berkeley where he studies International
    Political Economy. Upon graduating, he plans to attend Law School and
    pursue an MBA thereafter.

    Gasparian learned about the ANC-WR IEP while working with the Armenian
    Students' Association, which piqued his interest as he learned about
    the opportunities available through the ANC. Prior to his internship,
    Gasparian also volunteered at the ANC of San Francisco on several
    occasions. Gasparian strives to engage and encourage the Armenian
    American community to increase their civic engagement and looks
    forward to utilizing the knowledge and experience he gains from his
    tenure as an intern at ANC-WR to accomplish this goal.

    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 organizations around the country, the ANC-WR advances
    the concerns of the Armenian American community on a broad range of
    issues.
