Campus Engagement:
In addition my work in the Study Abroad Office, I am the Co-Chair of the Food Security Advocates (FSA) and a Co-coordinator of The Pantry at Geneseo as well as the Head Office Manager of the GOLD program. I am also involved in several business organizations such as the Student Managed Investment Fund (SMIF), Women in Business club, and the Business Excellence Program (BEP). Furthermore, I am part of the Chinese Culture Club (CCCG) and the multicultural dance group OriGinal Xpressions (OGX). Finally, I am on the President's Sustainability Commission and am a member of three honor societies.
Why are you excited to be an intern?
Having studied abroad myself and getting to experience the incredible doors it can open, I am excited to have this opportunity to help guide students as they navigate their experiences abroad and readjust to being back.
Fun Facts:
I used to be a competitive Team USA ice dancer and am an only-child.
Why did I decide to study abroad?I had always wanted to travel abroad and fully experience a culture different from my own, so when the opportunity to combine my student ambassadorship award with the FSD Uganda Fieldwork program, I knew that I had to go. There are so many aspects of culture that you cannot pick up just by reading about them, so getting out there and experiencing this cultural immersion first-hand was really important to me.
What’s next on your travel bucket list?
After graduation, I plan to pursue professional experience abroad and graduate school. In the meantime, I would love to explore more of the African and Asian continents.
