Bio


At GPIA my interests lie in education in development and children's, women's, and indigenous peoples' rights.  Before coming here for my Master's I worked in education and in social development, and as an undergraduate I studied International Business and Government & Politics.  Recently, I have had internships with the IRC resettlement office's youth program and at UNDP's Civil Society Organizations division.  After GPIA, I hope to work in social development and rights, especially in Latin America and/or South Asia.
