  • Senior, Political Science and International Studies majors

During my time as a Political Science and International Studies major, I’ve worked hard to make the most of both academic and extracurricular opportunities. One highlight was the United Nations Seminar trip, which gave me a deeper appreciation for diplomacy and global cooperation. Receiving the Klotsche Scholarship for International Studies was also a meaningful recognition of my academic efforts.
Outside the classroom, I’ve stayed active as a student-athlete on the tennis team and served as an officer in Phi Sigma Alpha, the political science honor society. Balancing these roles has helped me grow as a leader, a teammate, and a student.
