As we roll into 2021, it's hard to believe it has been 10 years since I finished grad school. @SMFAatTufts recently reached out to catch up about my career trajectory through the years. Here's the short interview: https://t.co/VCkvAwcols

Geghard T - Inspired by the ancient carvings from Geghard Monestary in #Armenia. Now available in my shop: https://t.co/CMlLJDz42a…

[Eric Esrailian @esrailian]

Please keep sharing the news & this heartbreaking content around the world! Mainstream outlets are now showing that Armenians in Artsakh have been attacked & the whispers of false equivalence are fading away. We want full transparency & international monitoring. We want Armenians

[Ani Avanian @aniavanian]

In support of @ArmeniaFund @ArmeniaFund_USA I'm selling original artwork, 100% proceeds will be donated immediately. Every dollar counts. Please Retweet! https://t.co/NKE00KU10d #PeaceForArmenians #PeaceforArtsakh 🇦🇲

Helping a cancer diagnostics NGO with some brand identity work & we need some culturally diverse views for the naming phase. What connotations does the word "root" have in your culture? (Please help me get lots of answers by retweeting)

“Removing the friction from a system is an aesthetic joy.” This resonates a lot with why I love my profession. #productdesign #ux

The mantra I repeat to myself and my team when faced with complex product design decisions and flows: "Simplicity is about subtracting the obvious and adding the meaningful." -by @johnmaeda

@aniavanian @GoWanderu Omg, that's amazing! 😍 Hi, Chiku!

[Ani Avanian @aniavanian]

Check out this arcade made by my team @GoWanderu for our internal hackathon! They constructed this from scratch, including a custom Wanderu game! Amazing job guys ❤️ #design #ux #builtfromscratch #startuplife #talent

[Ani Avanian @aniavanian]

They did such a great job with their @GA_boston UX class project for @GoWanderu, that I asked them to come present it again to the team! It was a pleasure working with you guys @SteveMolter , Nicole DAmbrosio & Nicholas Bergquist.

[Ani Avanian @aniavanian]

What a boost! Huge motivation to keep making. My resin-cast pendants made from discarded wire are featured in the @BostonGlobe today. Check out the full article here, and help spread the word by sharing! https://t.co/i4T195IajZ

Check out my new up-cycling project. I've been turning old computer cords into wearable art by casting them in resin. I have a couple of them on sale on my site and will add more soon. To shop: https://t.co/pZ6oWS2FqL #wearableart #upcycling #handmade #BostonDesign

It's not terribly often that an ad on the T proves useful, but WanderU is actually pretty great.
