My name is Caroline Bonnevie and I'm from Boston, MA. Currently, my major is undecided, but I'm considering double majoring in Psychology and History or Government. I am also a Digital Specialist for the Fries Center for Global Studies. My work consists of taping lectures and classes, editing videos, assisting with the creation of e-portfolios for students, among many other tasks. In addition to working at FCGS, I'm also a French tutor. I tutor up to two students a week to help bolster their understanding of the French language. I've found the work really rewarding, as it improves my own understanding of French as well as the students'.

My name is Kyllian Pather and I am a current senior from South Africa studying in the College of Social Studies. Additionally, I opened a University Major in Race Studies in Africa and the Diaspora and I am completing the African Studies Minor. I am a Media Assistant here at the Fries Center for Global Studies which means you may see me fiddling with a projector during your TA session. Before coming to the center, I worked as an RA for two years in the Butterfields. If you need technical support with the work you are doing here at the center or if you have any basic questions about study abroad programs, I am here to help!

My name is Nick Sng and I'm a Freeman Asian Scholar from Singapore. My major is still undecided, but I'm thinking of pursuing a University Major in Human-Centered Design, combining courses from Psychology, Studio Art, Anthropology, Computer Science and IDEAS. I work at the Fries Center for Global Studies as a Media Assistant, assisting TAs and students who need help setting up the audio/video recording devices that are available to all students, be it for their Moodle assignments or own personal projects.

My name is Perri Easley and I’m from Morris County, New Jersey. I am currently undecided, but I am leaning towards a History/Film Double major with a minor in French. At the Fries Center for Global Studies (FCGS), I serve as a Communications Assistant to ensure smooth and flawless execution of the bi-weekly Wes and the World newsletter. I was initially drawn to the Fries Center for Global Studies because I have always had a strong commitment to traveling, international affairs, and foreign language. I have studied for French for eight years and have completed two extended exchange programs in France. I love the cross-cultural exchange study abroad programs afford to students. I am proud to be a part of a community whose philosophy aligns with my passions.

My name is Sophie Taveras Shelley. I grew up in Albuquerque, New Mexico and am currently a sophomore here at Wesleyan. I work at the Fries Center for Global Studies as a Study Abroad Peer Advisor. I’m pursuing an Italian major. Italian has been a huge part of my life in college. Working at FCGS has given me a great dual perspective on language learning, language communities, and study abroad here at Wesleyan. I help with events, so I understand all the components of curating the wonderful, lively language communities we have. I plan to study abroad in Bologna in the fall semester of 2020. Food is another big part of my life, so I am obviously looking forward to being in Italy and learning how to cook well for myself.
