Personal Statement

All of my post-graduate accomplishments are directly related to my international experience at Richmond.  It was the semester abroad in New Zealand that prompted me to apply for a Fulbright grant to travel to Trinidad and Tobago, and also to spend two months in Spain working for the Worldwide Organizations of Organic Farmers (WOOF).  I found that I love traveling and learning abroad, and have many more trips planned for the future.
