Bachelor’s Degree
American University
https://www.linkedin.com/school/american-university/
I attended American University as a part of the Global Scholars program which grants a bachelors degree in three years. I took a full course load both summers, and was involved in Internships, two study abroad experiences, and part-time work during my undergraduate career. I participated in two on campus plays, and was a member of the student environmental organization Take Back The Tap. My senior capstone project, which was inspired by my study abroad experience,  was a paper investigating the failure of the Ecuadorian Yasuni-ITT initiative.
