Bio

Hi! My name is Karolina, and I am a proud Latin American scholar from Washington D.C. By pursuing a career as an international development worker, I hope that I can help people be foster a change in communities and leave a positive impact on the Latino community. At Fordham University, I plan to major in International Political Economy and seek a minor in Anthropology. After pursuing my bachelor's degree, I hope to attend law school and specialize in social justice. I also wish to volunteer in countries worldwide, beginning with countries that carry my roots, Honduras and El Salvador, and participate in a non-profit volunteer program.
