My educational background spans international relations, economic history, and political science. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in International Studies, with a minor in French, from American University in Washington, D.C. For my graduate studies, I participated in an Erasmus Mundus International Master’s program, which gave me the unique opportunity to study at three universities and earn three master’s degrees: an International Master’s in Global Markets, Local Creativities from the University of Glasgow, a Master of Social Science in Economic History from Uppsala University, and a Master of Arts in History from Erasmus University Rotterdam. My master’s thesis, Past Influences, Present Ethics: How History Shapes AI Decision-Making and Technological Futures, explored the ethical perspectives of AI-developing companies through a historical lens.

Throughout my studies, I’ve also worked in a variety of roles, gaining experience in program coordination, development, event planning, community engagement, and fundraising. Some of the organizations I’ve been lucky to work with include American University’s Center for Civic Engagement and Service, The Love Quilt Project, Share Our Strength, The Experiment in International Living, The Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation, and McGill University’s Desautels Faculty of Management.
