ANC-PN TO HOST PANEL ON CAMPAIGN STAFF EXPERIENCES

BURBANK, CA—The Armenian National Committee Professional Network (ANC-PN)
will be hosting its next professionals panel series event on Wednesday,
April 7th at Woodbury University. Organized with the support of the ANC
Burbank and the Woodbury University Armenian Student Association, the event
features young professionals who will discuss their experiences on the
election campaign trail.

`It is important to provide this forum for young Armenian Americans,
especially students, so they are aware of the exciting opportunities and
jobs that are possible when getting involved in the election process,’ notes
Ayk Dikijian, one of the main organizers and the moderator of the evening’s
event.

The upcoming panel will take place at Woodbury University’s Hensel Hall
Conference Room. The event will start at 7:00pm. It is free and open to
the public. The Woodbury University campus is located at 7500 Glenoaks
Boulevard, Burbank, CA 91504.

Panelists include Areen Ibranossian, currently the Deputy Chief of Staff for
Los Angeles City Council Member Paul Krekorian, Rostom Sarkissian, General
Consultant with R Media, and Elen Asatryan, currently the Executive Director
with the Armenian National Committee of Glendale.

In May 2009, the ANC-PN hosted a similar panel at Glendale Community College
and has hosted other professionals panel events featuring other career
opportunities in public service and public policy. In January 2009 it
hosted a panel on community media at Woodbury University.

The Armenian National Committee-Western Region is the largest Armenian
American grassroots community 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 works to promote understanding regarding issues of
concern to the Armenian American community.
