Summary
My experiences in travelling and living abroad have led to a strong interest in international relations combined with a passion for politics and public policy. With an undergraduate degree in government and international relations and a recently completed graduate certificate in international tourism and hospitality, I am seeking an entry-level position in the public sector to apply my theoretical knowledge in practical settings and further my professional growth.
