photo of quote"I graduated from Aquinas College in 2017 with a double major in History and Art History. Throughout my studies at Aquinas, my appreciation for art and local history increased and I developed an interest in historical research. In my junior year I participated in the Ireland Study Abroad program in 2016 where I was overwhelmed by its historical sites, national art works, and collection of museums. This year I’m headed back to Ireland as a graduate student in the Museum Studies program at University College Cork. The program consists of taught courses, day excursions, a curated museum exhibition, work placements in regional and national museums, and a dissertation."
