Favorite Courses:

  • International Conflict & Negotiation with Professor Panagoula Diamanti-Karanou. This course provided a deep dive into the complexities of international conflicts, negotiation strategies, and diplomatic resolutions. It allowed me to develop critical thinking and analytical skills while exploring key themes such as mediation, peacebuilding, and global diplomacy.
  • New England Stories & the African American Experience with Professor Kabria Baumgartner. I appreciated this class for its in-depth exploration of African American history in New England, particularly its focus on storytelling, cultural narratives, and historical preservation.
