ARMENIAN ASSEMBLY OF AMERICA WELCOMES
NICHOLAS AND SAMANTHA TESTA AS SOUTH NEW JERSEY’S STATE CO-CHAIRS
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Armenian Assembly of
America (Assembly) welcomes recent university graduates Nicholas Testa and
Samantha Testa, siblings from Moorestown, New Jersey, as the Assembly's newest
State Co-Chairs.
"Building on last year's
successful outreach and Advocacy Conference with the participation of State
Chairs and activists from across the country, Nicholas and Samantha make great
additions to our nationwide team of State Chairs," Assembly Grassroots
& Development Associate Mariam Khaloyan said. “With the 116th Congress
underway, we are reaching out to Members of Congress about the importance of
strengthening U.S.-Armenia relations, as well as prioritizing a Congressional
Armenian Genocide Resolution."
Nicholas Testa graduated from
Villanova School of Business with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business
Administration. Last year, he was a member of Villanova’s Armenian Society,
where he participated in local meetings and events. Previously, he served as
the Philanthropy Chairman of the Sigma Chi National Fraternity, for which he
organized a variety of philanthropic events to raise over $13,500 for the
Huntsman Cancer Institute. Nicholas works at Ernst & Young LLP as an
associate in Transaction Advisory Services and Transaction Real Estate.
“I am very eager to get started
as the Assembly’s New Jersey State Co-Chair and will do my best to help
contribute to our cause and success in the future,” State Chair Nicholas Testa
said.
Samantha Testa graduated Magna
Cum Laude from Villanova University, with a Bachelor’s Degree of Science in
Accountancy and Finance. She currently works at Ernst & Young LLP in a
senior position in Wealth and Asset Management within its Financial Services
advisory. In 2014, she participated in AGBU’s New York Summer Internship
Program.
“I am looking forward to this new
and exciting year as part of the Armenian Assembly of America team, and will
work hard with the local Armenian American community,” stated State Chair
Samantha Testa.
Established in 1972, the Armenian
Assembly of America is the largest Washington-based nationwide organization
promoting public understanding and awareness of Armenian issues. The Assembly
is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt membership organization.
