Spanish Honor Society students meet Marina

By Spanish Honor Society Member - Shannon Nosal

Marina Kelly spoke to the Spanish Honor Society on March 28, 2018. Marina is a 2016 graduate of American University. She studied Foreign Policy, Spanish, and Portuguese. She had a chance to study abroad in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Later, she worked for the Brussels Embassy and travelled Europe. She is Guatemalan and throughout high school she visited Guatemala for community service projects. She believes that studying languages in college is vital for your future and allows you to have more opportunities than others. For example, her classmate studied Spanish and engineering and now he is able to travel to many Spanish speaking countries for the company he works for. She now lives in St. Paul, Minnesota and is getting her master’s degree at the University of Minnesota. She plans to work with the foreign service for the United States and hopes to be stationed in a Latin American country. She is also Shannon Nosal’s cousin.
