In the context of our complex and sometimes chaotic world, MaKenzie looks forward to exploring what creates hope and resilience in others. As she draws on her interest in feminism and religion, and her progressive political values, MaKenzie wishes to explore these subjects in relation to the experience of hope. She is excited to take a step outside of her field of engineering to explore a range of globally relevant topics. She also hope that this opportunity will help her grow into a more well-rounded individual who is capable of collaborating with a broader spectrum of people. This experience will also serve as a strong foundation for her future career in international development. MaKenzie hopes to travel to Ecuador, Argentina, Chile, Morocco, Jordan, Israel, Tanzania, Kenya, and Madagascar.
