Hi! My name is Isaiah Almaguer, and I'm a sophomore at Georgetown University. I currently study International Affairs with an Environmental policy focus, which comes from my history with policy work in the Colorado House of Representatives. Being a born-and-raised Coloradan has also made me really appreciate nature!
Outside of research, I love hiking, cycling, and weightlifting to keep myself active. I am also really interested in anything related to Mexican culture and trying to reconnect with my culture through cooking..
Hi, I’m Isabella! I am a rising third year student at Georgetown University studying American Studies and Women’s and Gender Studies with a research focus on sexual violence, Christian nationalism, and gender policy. I am an educator and advocate for sexual violence prevention at both a cultural and legislative level.
This summer, I will be working with Dr. Nadia Brown and a fellow scholar to understand the occurrence and effects of violence against local-level women politicians. I am particularly interested in the influence of digital abuse involving AI and the effect that sexual harassment has on women’s political participation.
