Hello and welcome to my online portfolio! I hope you leave here with a little more information about me, my background, and what I have to offer. Feel free to get in touch with questions.

About

About Me

I am from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I am pursuing a BA in Political Science and Spanish with a Latin America, Latinx, and Caribbean Studies minor and Food Studies Certificate from Dickinson College. 

 

At Dickinson, I worked extensively on civic engagement and sustainability issues as an intern for Project SHARE food pantry, as a coordinator for the Community Engagement Fellows program, as a projects intern for the Center for Sustainability Education, amongst other positions. I have also developed intercultural competency skills and Spanish fluency through studying in Costa Rica, Ecuador, and Argentina, and through volunteering as an interpreter for migrant farmworkers.  

​

Additionally, in my internship experience with the City of Pittsburgh Office of the Mayor, I developed skills in constituent services, data analysis, policy research, and external communication.   

​

I hope to apply these skills to creating tangible change through public policy and law. I am particularly passionate about issues related to community development, public health, and Latin American politics and development.
