Hi my name is Kristen and I’m from Pittsburgh, PA. I am a Political Science and Spanish double major, Latin American, Latino and Caribbean Studies minor and am pursuing the Food Studies Certificate. I am primarily interested in issues relating to food justice including federal benefits, food insecurity, migrant farmworker/ H2A visa system, affordable housing, etc. I have conducted research at Dickinson on food access and federal food benefits, interned at Project SHARE for three years and served as an interpreter for migrant farm workers during the fall of 2018.
