Description
Hi! I'm a recent college graduate from Virginia. I'm passionate about cultural exchange, language learning (I have ~B2 level Spanish), and community development. During undergrad, I studied urban studies and Spanish, and also studied abroad several times. I love conversations about culture and history, so I would be happy to hear about yours! In my free time, you can find me reading (my favorite genres are historical fiction & African literature), cooking, in the gym, or going for a run.
