Hello Professor Kafka and classmates. My name is Matthew and I am currently a senior with plans to graduate in February of next year. It is extremely exciting to say the least. I have very much enjoyed my time in the SPA program learning under many smart, experienced, and respected individuals and I am excited for this next step.
I am interested in fields ranging from economics to history to the arts but I hope to study health care and it’s policies. Up until a couple months ago, I interned for a New York City Councilperson. I am no longer there as I would like to branch out into different areas of the nonprofit and public sector.
I was born, raised, and live in the southern tip of Brooklyn and on weekends, besides reading and studying, I work in an ice rink making sure kids don’t skate into walls.
Currently, I am being called to wash dishes and take out the garbage.
