Global Activities Scholars Program Students
Mia is a Pacific Northwest Native with a passion for mindfulness and bagel shops. She graduated from the University of Oregon in 2015 with a degree in International Development, a minor in Spanish and a certificate in Second Language Acquisition and Teaching. She just completed her Peace Corps service as an education volunteer in Indonesia 2016-2018. She has worked in anti human trafficking in the Netherlands and taught elementary ESL. Working with people from a variety of backgrounds has inspired Mia to pursue a career in international social work. Now entering the GASP program, she hopes to broaden her perspective of social justice and cultural humility through learning the many ways social work is practiced outside of the United States.
