Incoming second-year student at Georgetown University, pursuing degrees in Economics & Government! I am conducting research on reinterpreting the Child Tax Credit (CTC) as an automatic stabilizer. Passionate about social policy, international affairs, and the intersection between the private and public sectors.  I'm living in the U.S. right now but I used to live in Singapore, Thailand, and Morocco so I consider each of those places my home.

William Nyss

Student, University of York

Hiya! 👋  My name is Will and I am a student at the University of York studying Politics and International Relations. My Laidlaw research project looks at the extent governments are punished for the handling of the Covid pandemic and how governments utilise blame avoidance strategies.   I enjoy mountaineering around the UK and getting involved in youth politics such as with the British Youth Council and similar institutions. My passions would fall into having a love of reading and learning new things focusing on topics of self-development and psychology.

Anna Kung

Student, University College London

A Philosophy & Economics student at University College London. For my research project, I branched out into Political Economics: exploring the game theoretic modelling of principal-agent relationships in proxy wars, and how this impacts the outcomes of internationalised intrastate conflict. My Leadership-in-Action project focused on bringing the voices of more youth leaders to the table at Qatar Youth Power Conference 2023. I grew up in Singapore, but currently am in London; you can find me lost in a book, on a walk, or both at once.
