About Kristina

Founder

Kristina Gishian, PHRi™
Founder of HRound, HRCI™ CPP in Armenia

Kristina has spent her career in HR at international companies, learning the standards, processes, and mindset that define the profession globally.

She is HRCI-certified, and has spent the last few years building her own methodology for HRCI™ certification exam prep. Most study materials she came across were written like rulebooks — heavy, abstract, and far from how people actually learn. She wanted something different: clear, structured, and human.

That’s why she built HRound — to bring global HR standards to Armenia and make serious learning feel accessible and simple. Real knowledge, shared openly, through high-quality products and modern ways of delivering education that meet learners where they actually are.
