Bio

Hello! I love foreign languages and learning about other cultures. I speak French 🇫🇷, and a bit of Korean 🇰🇷. I participated in NSLIY’s online Korean fall in 2021, and studied abroad on a full merit scholarship from the U.S. Department of State with their Korean Summer 2023 program. I'm on track to graduate with my associate's degree in French this semester and I could not be more excited to be the first in my family to graduate with a college degree! I've been honored to intern with the Institute of Youth and Policy where I've had the opportunity to contribute to a civics curriculum that was presented at the AP conference in Seattle. I am passionate about civic engagement and education and can't wait to study political science in college!!
