Biography:
“Where I am today has everything to do with my experiences in Southern Africa, the U.S., and Webster. As a 10-year-old living in a refugee camp in Southern Africa, I never dreamed of experiencing the world as I have. My experiences at Webster in Geneva were the crowning moment of my academic career – effectively mixing education and fun in a very motivating and challenging atmosphere. I interned at the World Health Organization and U.N. Palace. I work as a case manager for homeless families, and plan to get into the policy-making arena of international politics.”
