Career

Ohanesian began skating in 2004.[1] She and Mark Bardei made their international debut in March 2012 at the International Challenge Cup, placing fifth in junior pairs.

2014–2015 season

In the 2014–15 season, Ohanesian/Bardei won the junior gold medal at the Lombardia Trophy in September 2014. The following week, they competed at their first ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) assignment, placing second in the short program, eighth in the free skate, and fifth overall at the event in Tallinn, Estonia. In October, they took the bronze medal at a JGP event in Zagreb, Croatia, having climbed from seventh place after the short program.

Ohanesian/Bardei won both the senior and junior national titles and were selected to represent Ukraine at the World Junior Championships in March 2015 in Tallinn. After placing 12th in the short program, they withdrew from the competition due to Bardei's illness.[2]

2015–2016 season

Ohanesian/Bardei's first assignment of the 2015–16 JGP series took place in late August in Riga, Latvia. Ranked first in the short and second in the free, they won the gold medal ahead of Russian pairs Anastasia Poluianova / Stepan Korotkov and Ekaterina Borisova / Dmitry Sopot. In September, they took bronze at the JGP in Linz, Austria, having ranked third in both segments, and qualified for the JGP Final. They placed fifth at the latter event, which was held in December in Barcelona, Spain.

Ohanesian/Bardei repeated as national champions on both the senior and junior levels.[3][4] Their training was limited in January 2016 due to problems with the ice at their rink in Dnipropetrovsk.[4] At the 2016 World Junior Championships in Debrecen, Hungary, the pair won a small bronze medal for the short program and finished fourth overall.

2016–2017 season

During the 2016–17 ISU Junior Grand Prix, Ohanesian/Bardei finished 6th in Tallinn and 10th in Dresden. Making their senior international debut, they placed 10th at the 2016 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb in December. They withdrew from the 2017 European Championships after Ohanesian was diagnosed with a cardiovascular health problem.[5] In April 2017, the Ukrainian Figure Skating Federation stated that their partnership had ended.[6]
