CAmpus life: Women in politics & policy D.c. fly-in

The D.C. Fly-in narrowed a group of 120+ women down to 10 women for the inaugural cohort. I was amazed when I received the email! Through this opportunity, I was able to network with other women in this career field and with other women aspiring to enter the policy and political sphere.I was able to understand the importance of foreign relations and cross-cultural community development when connecting with the Institute of Peace. I also learned that there are organizations such as, Running Start, who aim to increase female representation in running for office. I learned about the policy and political sphere and as soon as I landed in Miami began to pursue a undergraduate certificate in Public Policy.
