Sarah Moore’s Introduction

Hi! My name is Sarah Moore, I’m originally from Pennsylvania but my parents live in North Carolina. I am a Public Health major considering a minor in Biology.   I want to work in sustainable and effective hunger relief through responsible agriculture and nutrition counseling. I work with EV! at Alternative Breaks and to coordinate blood drives, and I am a Resident Advisor! I am also the assistant to the director of the Peace Corps Preparation Program at Elon. I work off-campus as an editor’s assistant for the Autism Asperger’s Digest.

I heard about the Periclean Scholars program when I first came to Elon and I knew immediately that this was a program that I wanted to be involved with. The opportunity to collaboratively explore human rights and social justice and then be able to have a positive impact is an incredible experience.  I am also excited to learn more about the people and culture of Namibia.

This semester I want to learn about Namibia as much as possible as well as about Project Pericles and what other classes have done. I’m excited to explore what we can do, from so far away, that will sustainably and positively impact Namibia.  I’m looking forward to developing my leadership skills and growing individually, as well as a class. I also hope to develop a passion for the people, culture and stories of Namibia with my fellow class of 2017!
