In 2011, I received a 1380 on my GRE test, and attended UC Davis Master's Program in Agricultural & Resource Economics. During my two years at UC Davis, I was a Teacher Assistant for several eco...

Hi, my name is Natasha! I graduated magna cum laude with a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and Women and Gender Studies at Pacific Lutheran University.
