Jewel Senn

My name is Jewel Senn and I am a freshman at the University of Washington. I was born and raised in Lacey, Washington for the 18 years I have lived. I graduated from Timberline high school in 2019 and also earned my AA at South Puget Sound Community College. During high school, I also played golf for 4 years and made it to the second day of districts for my senior year. For a majority of my life, I’ve been passionate about pursuing a health career. I’ve recently decided to major and get my bachelors in nursing because of my passion to help those in hospitals. After I earn my bachelors, I plan to get more hands on experience before continuing my education to become a nurse practitioner. Other hobbies and interests of mine include hiking, traveling, music, swimming, painting and dogs.

I am an undergraduate student at the University of Washington Seattle campus. I am majoring in Spanish with hopes to pursue a masters in teaching to become a high school Spanish teacher. I decided to take this indigenous activists and leaders class because it will enable me to learn more about the history of Latin America and it’s people, because much of their culture comes from indigenous peoples.

In my free time, I enjoy travelling to Spanish speaking countries where I use my skills to engage with and learn about new cultures. In 2014, I traveled to Cuba where my love of Spanish grew and I decided to commit myself to teaching others about the language, culture, and people. In 2015, I traveled to Nicaragua where I biked to a village far from town and donated school supplies to the children there. These experiences were very eye opening to the struggles people face in different parts of the world.
