Vanessa

I was born in a small town in western Luzon in the Philippines; and I was two when my family moved to the States.

I have just completed my Master's degree in Communication, Culture and Technology with a sharp focus on media and culture in the Arab world. I also have a Bachelor's degree in International Relations with a concentration on European studies. I hope to develop a career focusing on public and cultural diplomacy.

Some of my passions include art history, economic development, immigration and Muslim-Christian relations.
