Hi Everyone! My name is Hilary and I am thrilled to be a part of the FIUTS team! My passion regarding international and cross-cultural understanding is rooted in personal lived experiences as an immigrant to the US as well as my overall life goal of changing the world.
I have had the amazing opportunities to conduct my own research alongside the Intag pueblo community in Ecuador. My interest include food, exercising so I can eat more food (and stay healthy I guess), and art! If you see me around, I would love to say hi and meet you!
Hi, all! My name is Jason and I am a museum lover, an avid traveler, and a culinary explorer. Prior to FIUTS, I spent a number of years working for the Japan Exchange and Teaching (JET) Program, teaching English in South Korea, and traveling extensively around the world.
As a UC Santa Cruz graduate, I have a soft spot for nature and outdoor activities such as pickleball, tennis, and ultimate frisbee. I also enjoy cozy cafes and a great cup of tea. I look forward to meeting all of you very soon!
Hello FIUTS! I’m so excited to be back on the campus to join FIUTS as the new Student Programs Coordinator. I am passionate about promoting intercultural relationships on the UW campus and would like to support and contribute in any way I can. I look forward to meeting everyone in person at the International Welcome Weeks!
Outside work I enjoy urban hiking at Discovery Park and Washington Park Arboretum!
