Did studying with FIE influence your worldview?: "Because my time in Dublin was limited, I learned to live every day to the fullest. Upon my return home, I felt like a more mature and open-minded person. Thanks to Drexel University's Freshman Frontier's program, I was given the opportunity to experience many different types of cultures, travel throughout Europe, and live on my own, all before I turned 19. As an Economics major, I visited several large corporations based in Dublin. These experiences not only opened up my mind to different aspects of Irish culture but also demonstrated to me the impact of Dublin businesses on the world's economy. With my experience, I have been able to work for and associate with global, international companies. I still hope to work and live abroad after graduation."
