Community Advocate | Policy-Driven | Sustainability- Minded
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 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.
