While in Brazil, I had a remarkably positive experience, as I believe in the Nova Escola's mission and work and enjoyed exploring Brazilian culture. As part of my internship, I traveled to Rio where I reached out to the CGC team. I initially met Teresa Borges over dinner in Sao Paulo during our initial client meeting in January. This second time, I had the privilege to tour the CGC offices where I felt right at home. It is always astounding how far the Columbia network reaches - thanks so much for having me! 

This fall, the Paris Center will partner with the Centre Pompidou to present two events as part of the museum’s interactive exhibition series, “Cosmopolis #2: Repenser l'humain.”
