Early life

Khachiyan was born in Moscow, Soviet Union, on August 23, 1985.[2][3] In 1990, she immigrated to the United States with her parents and was raised in New Jersey.[9] She is the daughter of the Soviet mathematician and Rutgers University professor Leonid Khachiyan and Olga Pischikova Reynberg.[10] She is of Armenian, Russian and Ashkenazi Jewish descent.[11]

Khachiyan received the Patrick J. Quigley memorial scholarship from Rutgers University in 2006, studying economics and art history and graduating with honors.[12] She went on to pursue a master's degree in art history at New York University,[13] as well as a PhD in Soviet architecture, completing the former and dropping out of the latter.[7][9]

Khachiyan's commentary and critique of neoliberalism and feminism are heavily influenced by historian Christopher Lasch and social critic Camille Paglia.[7] She has also been influenced by Mark Fisher[6] and Michel Houellebecq.[4]

Khachiyan has been interviewed by Eric Weinstein and by Bret Easton Ellis on their respective podcasts.[26] She has also appeared on i24NEWS to discuss Russian-born convicted fraudster[27][28] Anna Delvey,[29] and as a speaker as part of Art Toronto's PLATFORM Speak Series.[30]
