Christy leaves the University with a BA in Public Policy and Political Science. She says her undergraduate experience was unique in that she was able to study abroad three times as part of the World Scholars Program. She studied her first semester freshman year in Rome, Italy; fall of junior year found her in Buenos Aires, Argentina; and, winter session of senior year in Budapest, Hungary. In addition, she interned on Capitol Hill during the spring of junior year and took coursework as part of the Biden Schools semester in DC program.
Christy began her work with KIDS COUNT as a public policy fellow in the summer of 2019. Her main project was the creation including content and graphic design of an annual legislative wrap-up, summarizing legislative decisions which had occurred in the previous session.
Next steps for Christy include applying to graduate schools to continue her education in public policy. But hopefully she will first be able to take her first post-COVID vacation to Mexico to visit family and travel!
Ive sort of had an unconventional college experience at UD, which I have loved, but it has also made me more grateful for what remains constant and steady when everything is changing and moving. This includes the friends I have made while on campus or abroad, and the people who have supported me as I transitioned from one opportunity to another.
