Marcela Nearing (she/her)

My name is Marcela Nearing, and I'm from Bay Head, New Jersey. I am majoring in Finance and International Relations, and my target language is French. I am passionate about exploring other cultures and mastering languages, so I cannot wait for my junior year abroad. Some of my skills include my language proficiency in French and Spanish and my ability to adapt well to new environments. I hope my studies as an Altman Scholar will allow me to obtain a global perspective and pursue my dream career as a diplomat.
