| Introduction | Hello everyone! This is your 2007-2008 Ambassadorial Scholar from district 6630. I will be heading to Buenos Aires, Argentina to pursue a master's degree in International Relations from La Universidad de Belgrano. I am a 2006 graduate from Ohio Wesleyan University with a double major in Spanish and Psychology. While there my interest in international travel was born. I spent a semester in Salamanca, Spain, and three weeks in Ecuador. My passion for Hispanic culture grew from these overseas experiences as well as working with the Latino community in my neighborhood. After graduation I worked for a Spanish enrichment program teaching elementary school Spanish. Due to the nature of the Ambassadorial Scholarship, I'll be leaving my students to help better my own knowledge of the language and the culture. |
