Welcome to World and Me Project!
Our Mission
World and Me Project is a platform created to help people not only understand what is happening in our world, but also why it matters. We believe knowledge should be clear, accessible, and inspiring. Through engaging stories that blend together history, geopolitics, economics, culture, and human experience, we bring the world closer and make it more relatable.
Our mission is to grow into a global educational and cultural movement—one that sparks curiosity, nurtures understanding, and empowers people to shape a better future together.
Our Values
Curiosity – we ask questions that matter and encourage others to do the same.
Clarity – we break down complex topics to make them understandable and relevant.
Truthfulness – we value accuracy, honesty, and intellectual integrity.
Empowerment – knowledge is power, but only if it’s shared, understood, and used.
Equity – we highlight voices and perspectives often left out of mainstream narratives.
Courage – we are unafraid to explore difficult histories, ask hard questions, and challenge assumptions.
Welcome to my world of knowledge and exploration. I'm an economist with a deep passion for making complex ideas accessible and meaningful. My academic journey has taken me from the Armenian State University of Economics (Specialist in Management) to Williams College (M.A. in Policy Economics) and ultimately to a Ph.D. in Economics from Colorado State University.
Along the way, I’ve worked across both public and private sectors—serving the Armenian government, conducting research in Armenia and the United States, advising governments as a consultant, and teaching economics at Colorado State University and the University of Denver.
Through these diverse experiences as a researcher, educator, and policy advisor, I’ve come to a powerful realization: people everywhere crave clarity—clear knowledge, clear facts, and a deeper understanding of the world around them.
That’s what drives me. And that’s why I created the World and Me Project—to bridge the gap between global complexity and everyday understanding. I invite you to join this journey. Together, we can shape a more informed, thoughtful, and connected world.
