FAMA NDIAYE, COHORT 1

My name is Fama Ndiaye and I am 19 years old. I was born on March 3rd, 1998 in Dakar, Senegal which is a country in West Africa. I grew up in Senegal and spent an amazing childhood there. I moved to New York in 2009, at the age of 11 years old. I’ve been living in New York since then and I am currently a junior majoring in International Studies with a double minor in Anthropology and Economics at The City College of New York. I love to travel and to learn about the different cultures and languages around the world. One of my many goals is to study abroad every winter and summer from now on until I graduate in 2019. My professional goal is to work with an international organization that fights for the human rights of all people worldwide.
