"It always seems impossible until it is done." -- Nelson Mandela

I am in my last semester as an undergraduate and this quote resonates with me as I figure out what lies ahead of me for my future. I am an International Affairs and Political Science double major at the University of Georgia. In May of 2012, I was given the opportunity to study abroad in Stellenbosch, South Africa. This is where my future started to become more clear through the service learning that I participated in. This impacted my world view.

I have unearthed a passion to give myself to others and travel the world. I want to make a difference in whatever it is that I choose to do. While that may seem impossible to most, I know that with hard work and passion this can be accomplished.
