Profile Information
- What motivated you (or your organization) to become involved in peace and conflict resolution?
- I had some experience the senior year of my undergraduate degree with elective courses in Conflict Resolution, taken at Portland State University. I followed up with an amazing experience at the European University Center for Peace Studies, where I attended their MA program. I have spent the last year working ot complete my thesis on issues of peace-building and ethnic conflict.
- Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself or the work of your organization (no more than 3 paragraphs)
- I grew up in a military household, my father was an officer in the United States Air Force. I spent 6 and a half years in the UK, and attended primary school there in north-east Hampshire. The family then moved to Germany, and I finished my time overseas at a Department of Defense school on Ramstein Air Base.
I started my college career as a Computer Science major, but finished several years later with a BA in International Studies and a minor in Japanese language and literature. During my senior year I took three courses offered through the graduate program in Conflict Resolution and then made the decision to pursue a Master's degree.
I attended the European University Center in Stadtschlaining, Austria as part of their MA program during the 2006-2007 school year, and I am currently working to complete my thesis. During my time at EPU I had the opportunity to be a part of a very unique academic community. I shared the living spaces and the classroom with a small group of students from all over the world. I also benefited tremendously from the teaching staff, the professors were excellent and from backgrounds as diverse as the student body.

- I have lived in the UK, Germany, and Austria. During my undergraduate degree I focused my studies on East Asia, mainly studying Japan and China. I also completed the interdisciplinary portion of my degree in the African Studies department, focusing mostly on west African political history since independence. I have also maintained over the past year and a half a very close relationship with some Iranian friends from my time in Austria.
