I am currently a senior at the University of Tennessee completing my bachelors degree in political science with a focus in international affairs. I have always had an interest in the way the world functions, and the impacts this has on the numerous countries and organizations that reside. As a result I have also completed the sub-focus of international cultures and societies in order to gain a further understanding of how different populations and regions function on a day to day basis. It is my goal to eventually gain a position on which I can contribute in making improvements to the world using the knowledge I have gained from my time at The University of Tennessee. The university allowed me to gain many important skills, as well as the ability to write and understand academic research papers and other literary works. It is my wish to eventually gain a position on which I can apply the skills I have learned and make a positive impact on the issue I work on.
