From a young age, I've always been interested in development and humanitarian work, aimed especially at children. I have worked on development projects in South Asia focused on early-childhood development, public health, and livelihood development. I am currently working on a research project aimed at diminishing socioeconomic disparities in children’s diets. World hunger, children, and sustainability are a few of my foremost interests. I fear for a world full of humans, but less humanity. I worry about children who are deprived of a childhood. I believe in a future in which quality life, clean water, enough food, and education are not privileges, but rights of every human and my passion is to contribute to achieving that future I believe in.I love to read and travel. You can find me taking road trips or wandering in old cities in my free time.
Listed skills include Microsoft Office, Research, Dietetics, Human Nutrition, and 20 others.
