Graduation year: 2028

Major and Minor: Computer Science; Linguistics

Name of Scholarship: Critical Language Scholarship (CLS)

Language: Russian

Period of the Scholarship/Abroad Term: Summer 2026

Country: Latvia

My main goal is to employ Russian to develop NLP applications using OSINT that are more culturally contextual and community-focused. CLS will allow me to immerse myself in Russian beyond textbooks, providing real-world language experience while deepening my understanding and use of non-Latin script languages.
