Welcome to Our New Interns and
Volunteers
Ashley Miller
Ashley grew up in a small town in the central valley
of California and has been living in Santa Barbara
for five years. She recently graduated from the University
of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB) with a B.A.
in Communication and a Minor in Global Peace and Security.
Ashley currently works for a catering company and
as a part-time nanny. Ashley says "I am not ready
for a 9 to 5 job and I'm busy exploring different
opportunities in order to get an idea about what I
would love to do. In November Ashley will be traveling
to Australia for three months. She enjoys yoga and
being outside as much as possible and she feels she
is at her best when she can help people. Ideally Ashley
would love to work for the United Nations or for an
NGO to make a difference. "Who knows where I
will be in five years but that is part of the excitement
in my life."
Hilary Willams
Hilary grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and attended
De Anza Junior College where she played soccer for
two years before transferring to UCSB. She began her
time at UCSB as a Dance major before deciding she
wanted an education which focuses on current world
issues. Changing to Global Studies has opened a huge
door for Hilary in terms of her career goals. She
would love to find a career which allows her to travel
around the world working with a non-profit organization
that focuses on aiding the underprivileged of the
world. Hilary's goals include learning at least two
foreign languages and at some point returning back
to school for a doctorate degree. She is currently
working at the El Encanto Hotel as a valet as well
as co-coaching an under-eights boys soccer team. Hilary's
work with Jagriti International is providing her
with invaluable experience in the field as well as
motivation and inspiration to travel and help the
less fortunate!!
Stacey Lang
Stacey attends the University of California at Santa
Barbara and is a Junior who is double majoring in
German and Global Studies. She has been working for
Jagriti International as an intern over the summer
and in the Fall is spending a semester studying abroad
in Madrid, Spain. She wishes to learn Spanish and
experience a different lifestyle and culture. In January
Stacey will be returning to UCSB and Jagriti International
to continue the eye-opening and inspiring job.
