Montana, which is a Republican state. I definitely think there are unique experiences there. I am the only daughter in a household with three brothers. There is a lot that can be derived from that experience. Coming out here to Washington, and meeting, speaking, and connecting with people who hold many different beliefs than I do, my thought processes have shifted a number of times. Being open to change is the key to everything, rather than just sticking to a particular mindset. What’s the biggest

times. Being open to change is the key to everything, rather than just sticking to a particular mindset. What’s the biggest lesson you’ve learned from your fellow interns and coworkers in Senator Dhingra’s office? I have learned that there is more to the world than the simple black and white, right and wrong, and I think that is a harsh reality to come to terms with just because it is just hard to say if one thing is correct, or one thing is incorrect. I do still think that some truths are truer

What do you want to be when you grow up? This is the question that almost every student gets asked, especially once they hit their senior year of high school. When I was a senior, I had no idea what to answer. There were so…
knew exactly what they wanted to do. I entered college undecided because I knew that I had time to explore and change my mind. I wanted to leave college with a major that allowed me to help others on a daily basis, but I was unsure about what that major would or could be.
