I am a driven IU Bloomington student majoring in Political Science with a passion for politics, argument, and social science. I plan to pursue a law degree and am currently working as an intern at the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Education and the Workforce.Within the Political Science department at IU, I am a member of IPAW (Indiana Political Analysis Workshop), taking graduate-level courses covering statistical analysis and hands-on academic research in Political Science. Under IPAW director Dr. William Bianco, I work as a research assistant on his work exploring the US Congress and COVID-19 relief policy.Aside from Political Science, I am minoring in Music and Spanish. As a passionate violinist, I chose to keep music in my life by auditioning as a non-major and joining the IU University Orchestra among other music majors through the Jacobs School of Music. In addition, through taking various Spanish classes for the minor, I have gained a professional working proficiency in the language.
