Education

My extensive time pursuing higher education puts on a competitive edge with learning how to do various tasks within the political sphere. During my time I have learned the ability to write memos, policies, and even practice diplomatic language to implement in the workspace. Notably, during my Bachelors I strengthened my Spanish skills by formally learning how to proficiently write and speak in a professional manner. Beyond the classroom, I used my skills to be a research lead for the GMU’s State Department Diplomacy Lab program, my internships, and also serve as a translator Liaison between UMW and the Fredericksburg Food Bank. The education I have received has prepared me to adapt to various competencies within Global Affairs and Policy.
