Eslyn Gonzalez is an incoming junior at Florida International University in Miami, Florida, where she will be completing a Bachelors degree in International Relations with a pre-law track. As a Cuban immigrant, she wants to develop an understanding of the effects international policy has on the lives of others, and how certain global issues are being resolved, especially immigration and education. In the next two years, she plans to study abroad as a means to discover a meaningful career in the field of law or international affairs that incorporates the use of foreign languages, such as Spanish and Portuguese. She is fully confident that learning languages is essential for maximizing opportunity and life chances, and she hopes to inspire others to think the same. When she is not focused on her academic pursuits, Eslyn enjoys practicing portrait photography and dancing to Latin music.
