B.A., International Affairs and B.A., Russian Language, University of Georgia

MIP, University of Georgia

I am from Evans, Georgia, and I attend the University of Georgia as a Double Dawg student. My undergraduate majors are International Affairs and Russian, with an emphasis on human rights and Russian politics. I am also receiving a global studies certificate and am set to graduate with these degrees in May 2021. My expected graduate school graduation, with a MIP, will be May 2022. At UGA, I am a member of Gamma Sigma Sigma National Service Sorority, Inc., the UGA Catholic Center, and the Russian Club. While in my undergraduate degree, I studied abroad in St. Petersburg, Russia and at Oxford University, taking courses in intensive Russian language and law. Furthermore, I am a Regional Director for the Borgen Project and a Substance Abuse Education and Intervention intern at Drug Free Communities. I enjoy traveling, and my favorite place I have been is Suzdal’, a small town in the countryside of Russia with loads of charm. I also enjoy volunteering as a puppy raiser for the Guide Dog Foundation for the Blind and have my second dog in training.
