Niki Haghrooyan

I am currently torn between two fields of study due to my diverse interests and passions. On one hand, I am deeply passionate about sports and aspire to work in a field where I can share and cultivate that enthusiasm. On the other hand, I am equally intrigued by aerospace engineering, a field that challenges me intellectually and offers the opportunity to contribute to advancements that shape our future. Both paths excite me, and I am committed to pursuing a course of study that allows me to make a meaningful impact, whether it be through fostering a love for sports or innovating in the field of engineering.

My graduate school interests lie at the intersection of sports and engineering. I am passionate about pursuing a field that allows me to integrate my love for sports with innovative technological advancements, whether that be through sports management, exercise science, or aerospace engineering. I am eager to engage in a program that challenges me intellectually while also enabling me to make a meaningful impact in the field I choose.

I have a deep passion for sport/movement and especially gymnastics, which I've pursued for many years and recently began coaching to share my love for the sport with others. I also have a strong desire to explore new places, which is why I’m currently taking a gap year and working as a flight attendant, allowing me to travel and see the world. This experience not only fuels my love for adventure but also broadens my perspective on different cultures and lifestyles.
