The Cal Lutheran Experience

Political Science

I want to teach and show students by example that Political Science is not only an academic discipline but also a field that can equip them with knowledge and skills that can have public impact outside the classroom and beyond their college experience.

Political Science

The Political Science department gave me a plentitude of opportunities to expand my knowledge within this field. I was able to study politics at Oxford University, immerse myself into Cuban culture and government, research droughts as a McNair scholar, and be a civil servant to minority groups through the Gallegly fellowship.

Psychology

My favorite experience was becoming a Departmental Assistant. I loved working on psychology-related tasks and projects, getting to know fellow students and professors who have become great friends and mentors, and challenging myself to apply for the Honors Program, which I wouldn’t have heard of otherwise.
