How has studying abroad affected how you now see your future?
“Now that I have almost touched the Eiffel Tower, bike toured through Germany, been to the top of Barcelona, touched the seas of the Amalfi Coast, and so much more there is no turning back.”

Studying abroad and traveling has changed my career choices by requiring that traveling or having an international connection is needed. I love how cultures are so different and how they intertwine with my own. People are different and it is necessary to have an open mind in order to understand each other. Before, I just wanted to stay in the Los Angeles area and live a “normal life”, which would not be horrible since everything and everyone around me strives for the same thing. Now that I have almost touched the Eiffel Tower, bike toured through Germany, been to the top of Barcelona, touched the seas of the Amalfi Coast, and so much more there is no turning back. I want to be going forward in the direction where I am a part of the world instead of watching from the sidelines watching everyone else dreams come true. A career is something that you should be able to get up every day learning something new and feeling that you are contributing to the world. And, studying abroad helped me realized how big the world is.
