The WVU Experience

I spent a ton of my time outside the classroom traveling the world. I spent a month in Italy in 2022, summer 2023 in Belize for eight weeks, and in November 2023 I went to Chile. I have been able to study abroad three times with the help of WVU and it has been amazing! After graduation, I am going to attend the University of California, San Diego for a master’s degree in Latin American Studies.
