Experience Summary
I have studied French for about 10 years, starting with classes in high school, and enjoyed it so much that I continued my studies at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. My studies focused primarily on French literature, though I was particularly interested in francophone literature from Quebec and the Antilles. Following that, I went on to enroll in a unique program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the Professional French Masters Program (PFMP). The goal is of the program is to combine French with a given area of concentration, which allowed me to continue honing my language skills while studying immigration. This culminated in a 4-month internship in Montreal, where I worked with Haitian immigrants in a community center. The experience was incredibly challenging but enriching, and I hope to continue working with French in the future.
My Hobbies
I enjoy reading science fiction and fantasy books, knitting, drawing, and playing video games.
