Education Coordinator

Melissa Hahn

I have a Bachelor's degree in Russian Area Studies and am currently studying for a Masters in Intercultural Relations. One of the projects that initially attracted me to YS is the storybook project, because stories are an excellent way to reach children and to promote an interest in the broader world at a young age. I am especially keen to continue promoting this project, and even to expand it into new areas such as domestic diversity and stories for adolescents. I would also like to explore ways to tie the stories into curriculum for teachers. I hope you will join me!
