The past two semesters at Tufts University were filled with new experiences, interesting classes, and great opportunities. During the spring semester I studied abroad in Madrid, Spain. I lived with a host family and took all my classes in Spanish, allowing my Spanish skills to flourish through the immersion. I learned so much about Spanish culture and traveled to other countries, including Morocco, France, and Portugal. Two of my favorite aspects of studying abroad were making new friendships and expanding my artistic skills through a mixed-media arts class and a creative writing class. Furthermore, I interned at the Fulbright Commision España, helping to organize information about applicants and current English teaching assistants in Spain. I enjoyed gaining insight into how the Fulbright Commission operates and functions. I hope to have the opportunity to visit Spain again after I graduate, as I enjoyed my four months there immensely. Following my semester in Spain, I interned at Goldman Sachs over the summer, working as a Summer Analyst in Operations. It was an incredible learning opportunity and I enjoyed all of the projects and tasks I worked on with my fellow interns and coworkers. After a great spring semester and busy summer, I returned to Tufts, excited to begin classes and reconnect with my friends. I spent much of this semester attending classes, studying, spending time with friends, and working at a local coffee shop. My favorite class this semester was Environmental Justice and World Literature. As a cohort, we were tasked with creating a class action social project. We successfully designed a website detailing information about sacrifice zones and how one can individually make a difference. It’s bittersweet to be graduating from Tufts next semester, but I am so thankful for MVYouth and their continuous support.
