My interests lie in addressing the educational barriers experienced by immigrants, refugees, and other groups on the move. This summer, I will be interning at the White House, specifically in the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, where I aim to gain valuable insights into international policy and negotiations. Alongside this experience, I hope to delve into comparative border security and the mechanisms of migration enforcement. My focus includes examining the roles of individuals in migrant smuggling and trafficking to understand the impact of these activities on national security. The flexibility of my public policy major allows me to explore this diverse array of interests, providing a comprehensive foundation to address complex issues from multiple perspectives. By bridging the gap between the lived experiences of migrants and the policy measures designed to manage their journeys, I aim to foster legal frameworks that not only protect vulnerable populations but also enhance our understanding of migration's broader implications on security.
