As a passionate advocate, empath, and leader, I utilize my privilege of a voice often. With my passions in mind, I plan on completing my bachelor's degree in Political Science with minor in Peace Studies to further implement change in the world. Being a woman from a marginalized group living in the Bronx, I've been heavily involved in activism from a young age. Despite the given dangers growing up in my community, I quickly learned the amount of power and influence a single voice may have. My experiences pushed me to take larger risks in my career, motivating me to move across the country on my own in pursuit of higher education. Now on campus, thousands of miles from home, I've begun to cultivate my own sense of community within the institution. I'm heavily involved in many organizations such as the Peace Studies Union, Ethnic Studies Society, Activists Coalition, and I maintain an executive role in both the Feminist and Inner Peace clubs. Looking forward, I hope to attend a highly-esteemed law school and establish a career in human rights law and international humanitarian work.
