Melisa Mantilla

I am originally from Quito-Ecuador, but I moved to New Orleans in 2010 for college. I am a student at Loyola University New Orleans, pursuing a major in Political Science, with minors in Mass Communication and Latin American Studies.

I am graduating in May 2014. Then, I want to pursue a Masters Degree in International Affairs. My career goal is to work in the government and work in the development of a poverty alleviation plan for Latin America. Eventually, I want to become a professor at a univeristy.

My hobbies include playing soccer, dancing, traveling, and reading about history and feminism.
