My professional background includes teaching English in France and working with international students both at the college and high school levels.  I also worked for an organization that runs volunteer and internship programs in Africa, Asia and South America. One of the highlights of my career so far is having the privilege of working on the U.S. Department of State’s Youth Exchange and Study (YES) program, which brings high school students from predominantly Muslim countries to the U.S. for an Academic year.  I have been fortunate to travel the world for work, meeting amazing people and continuing to learn about the complexities and interconnectedness of our world.

I have worked as a Study Abroad Program Coordinator at UC Davis since 2012 and continue to enjoy helping students explore global learning opportunities.
