Hi! I am currently a senior in high school making my post-graduation plans. So far in my life, I've developed my interests through activities outside of school: I've volunteered at my local zoo for two years, where I educated the public on sustainability and worked with kids as a camp counselor assistant, fostered kittens, and took part in Odyssey of the Mind. Through this, I now know that I am most fulfilled when learning, educating, and helping others, and I want to continue doing that for the foreseeable future. I am most passionate about traveling. I come from a multicultural household, with an American mother and a Swedish father, who's also a pilot, so I've grown up hearing about different cultures and places. Now, one of my favorite side hobbies is learning about geography and geopolitics and making future travel itineraries. My goal is to study International Relations and work in either diplomatic affairs, development, or international aid, where I can have a direct, positive influence on people's lives. Since IR is often multidisciplinary, I hope to also obtain a Master's degree and specialize in the subject I grow most interested in during my first four years of university. One of my main priorities is also attending university in a foreign country. My dream schools include Lund University, UC3M, and Anglo-American University in Prague. Fun Facts: I've been doing Krav Maga for two years, and love to rollerblade.
