Why did you chosen McCourt? I chose McCourt because of its quantitative data focus, strength of curriculum, and location in DC.
What has been the best part of your experience so far? I have enjoyed taking courses I never took in undergrad (quantitative methods & economics) and meeting so many other students interested in public policy!
Undergraduate Degree and University: Bachelor's degree in Journalism & History. Northwestern University.
Hobbies/ Interests: I'm interested in social, economic, and education policy. Outside of work and school, I like to explore the DMV's best hiking trails with my dog.
