Zarmine Kouyoumdjian
Hello, my name is Zarmine Kouyoumdjian. My life started with figure skating. I was three years old when I first started my skating lessons. At the age of two, my mom used to take me to the Skating Edge Ice Arena in Torrance, California, every day so I could watch the skaters. Even though I was so young, I remember the feeling of looking at those skaters and hoping I would one day be able to do the same thing. The day I started skating, I knew that it was for me. I loved the pressure, the discipline, and the competitiveness. |
