Her transatlantic focus is due to the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange (CBYX) programme and the completion of her High School Diploma in Vermont. Aside from her academic background, her professional experience includes internships at the Federal Academy for Security Policy, the US Consulate General in Hamburg and the German Federal Foreign Office.
