Political Science, BS
2019
Juan’s family immigrated from Colombia to Chelsea, Massachusetts when he was a child. Growing up, he witnessed and experienced hardships and disparities within the Hispanic community which motivated his passion for public service. With his goal of pursuing public service in mind, Juan was excited to take advantage of the opportunities to learn from Northeastern’s faculty and gain direct experience in politics.

The experiences I gained at Northeastern have really set me apart in the public sector. Not only have I developed the skills to write a great research paper or policy memo, but I can put those skills into action.
