ACADEMIC AND CAREER AND INTERNSHIP COORDINATOR

Victoria is a native of Athens, GA, and a graduate of the University of Georgia, from which she graduated in 2014 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication Studies. Her spark for an abroad experience was lit in primary school when a student teacher taught her class French. From there, Victoria hoped to pursue a life that was outside of her hometown. In high school, she embarked on a study abroad adventure with her history class and served as a volunteer abroad in Cardiff, Wales, for two summers. After finishing her studies at UGA, Victoria taught English in South Korea for three years and learned some survival Korean. Later she moved to Madrid, a city she has called home away from home for the last five years. Through her international work she became interested in promoting global engagement at home as well as abroad with an overall hope of making global experiences more accessible for diverse populations. During her free time, Victoria can be found relaxing in a park and enjoying the company of friends she has come to call family in her new home.
