Guten Tag! My name is Dallas Blackwell, and I am from Birmingham, Alabama. I am extremely passionate about foreign languages. I have studied German for five years now, I have studied Japanese since last year, and I look forward to studying more. My passion for foreign languages led me to the field of international relations. I gained an interest in environmental science. I decided that I want to pursue these two fields together in a career, so I plan to become a global policymaker. I want to negotiate policies and regulations with other nations that will help protect the environment. I am a great candidate because, with the help of scholarships, I can make an impact in this world. Danke!
