Goals and interests

Career goal

I hope to work in the public sector. I don't know yet if I want to remain in nonprofit management or move into local government. I hope that going through an MPA program will show me what positions match the most with my skills/interests

Graduate school interests

I aim to get a Master's in Public Administration. I am very interested in learning how local and municipal governments operate and where I can do the most to make a positive impact in the communities in which I live.
