I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg with a Bachelors Degree in Spanish and a Certificate in Latin American Studies. My specific semester-length study abroad experiences in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Havana, Cuba have provided me with valuable insights into the study abroad process. Upon returning to Pitt-Greensburg after my study abroad programs, the then Directors of International Studies, Dr. Pilar Herr and Michele Shuey, offered me a position as the first intern in the newly-created Pitt-Greensburg Study Abroad Office. I was responsible for assisting students with their selection of appropriate study abroad programs, fitting their unique backgrounds and academic goals. While at Pitt Greensburg I acquired several positions: Assistant to the Director of International Studies, Assistant to the Coordinator of the Academic Villages, and Recitation Leader for Beginning and Intermediate Spanish Classes. I also volunteered my time to the Pitt-Greensburg Spanish Club, serving as President. While in this position I had even more opportunities to promote Pitt-Greesnburg Study Abroad Programs and to offer assistance to our exchange students from Guanajuato, Mexico.
