I am currently studying to earn an M.A. in International Education Management at the Monterey Institute of International Studies in Monterey, California.

My professional goal is to work for a study abroad program. The city of Lyon, France, where I have lived for three years, is of particular interest to me. I would love to work either in Lyon or in a partnership with a university there, managing student mobility.

Because of my interest and experience n France, I chose to conduct research of the education system of a country that has been influenced by the French culture. I selected Vietnam for my case study because, though it has been affected by the French culture through colonization, its location in Asia makes it unique. Researching the country of Vietnam has helped me gain more knowledge in a region of the world in which I had little expertise previously, yet it has allowed for me to connect with the country given my expertise in the French language and culture.
