New York City Trip & The Buena Vista Social Club
"The second piece of the day was the broadway musical “The Buena Vista Social Club”, which simply blew me away. The loud and energy filled cuban rhythms, combined with the vivid colored outfits and set, and fast salsa dancing created an unbelievable atmosphere in the theater..." - From personal reflection

CT Forum “Global Affairs”
The CT Forum is an awesome opportunity to hear from highly accomplished speakers, and the "Global Affairs" event I attended was no exception. Hearing Admiral James Stavridis and Anne Applebaum discuss their stances on current events was insightful, educational, and engaging. Some of the topics that were discussed include the Trump administration changes to USAID, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and the future of the Middle East.
ADL Never is Now Conference 2025
For the second year in a row, I attended the ADL Never is Now conference in New York. This trip comes with so many complicated feelings, of pride, anger, connection and frustration, to name a few. Attending a conference this big is such an awing experience, and empowering to be in spaces filled with so many people all fighting for change. While there were certainly people I disagreed with, that only added to the experience.
