Show notes

Jessica Damerjian’s journey begins in Gyumri, Armenia, where she was born and adopted as a baby. Now a college student at Drexel University in Philadelphia studying Construction Management, Jessica reflects deeply on themes of identity, belonging, and rediscovering her Armenian roots.Originally from Reading, Massachusetts, her story explores what it means to bridge two worlds—being raised in a different country while finding pride and connection in her Armenian heritage. Through her voice, Jessica reminds us that family and identity are not defined by borders, but by love and the courage to seek one’s roots.
