When Keva Luke (LAS’21) graduates at the end of this academic year, she will begin what she hopes will be a long career as a U.S. diplomat. The Rangel Fellow will take up a position as a Foreign Service Officer in the State Department, where she plans to leverage cultural diplomacy to foster improved relations with countries all over the world.
Throughout her time at Georgetown, Luke has gained the skills and experience that will equip her for a successful career in global affairs, including producing a capstone research project examining the the experiences of the Latino diaspora and developing the Center for Latin American Studies’s (CLAS) Latin America and Caribbean Covid Map, a student-designed tool evaluating the impacts and responses to COVID-19 across the region.
