University of Minnesota-Twin Cities

London, England

Why did you choose to study or intern abroad?
I chose to intern abroad as it has always been my dream to work in London. Additionally, I grew up watching a lot of British media so that influenced me towards choosing London. I also knew that I wanted to do a lot of travel whilst I was studying abroad and the London Heathrow Airport flies out to pretty much every country!

WhAT IS ONE NEW EXPERIENCE YOU'RE HOPING TO HAVE WHILE ABROAD?
I hope to do my first-ever solo traveling trip. I want to use this as an opportunity to really get in touch with myself and see some cool new places!

What CLASS ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO TAKING while ABROAD?
I am most looking forward to my class on Modern Art! I think it will be amazing to see all the paintings we talk about in class in real life!

WHAT IS SOMETHING you're passionate and excited about? 
I am super passionate about art and arts education. Outside of college I am a performer in the Twins Cities and a graphic designer/illustrator so art has played a huge role in my life. If I didn't have access to arts education and support growing up I don't know where I'd be! That's why I feel so passionately that all kids should have access to arts education!
