I'm a graduate student at Kennesaw State University studying International Policy Management. I want to apply a human rights framework to international policy, and I have a particular interest in gender equity and secularism. I have a Bachelors in Sociology, where I minored in Communications. I grew up mostly in Atlanta and did six years of school in Peru. I studied abroad during my undergraduate degree in Bordeaux, FR and I have recently completed a study abroad in Geneva, Switzerland for a graduate course. I’m fluent in Spanish and I’ve been studying French at the Alliance Francaise, I’m intermediate, and certainly like practicing it. I like being involved in different professional and educational experiences.
I am respectful, considerate, very open minded, and relate very well to multicultural settings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I study and travel aboard as much as I can, and getting to learn and teach multicultural perspectives is very rewarding to me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As in June 2, 2016 I am in the middle of 3 study abroad programs lasting 5 weeks! I started in Geneva this past May studying Global Governance with my current graduate program at KSU; I am now in Paris studying French at the Alliance Francaise for two weeks; and later this month I am scheduled to start a week long United Nations Program with Seton Hall University in New York!

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to practice my developing French language skills, and am always happy to practice English and Spanish, which I am fluent in. I enjoy talking about social problems involving social factors, such as gender, race, and sexuality. I more than open in discussing matters in the international relations field.
