A little about me...

My name is Talia, I'm 25 years old, and I'm from Madison, Wisconsin.

​

I currently work in interfaith dialogue, and I'm excited to learn about the unique culture and history of Northern Ireland! My work focuses on bridging differences of belief and creating opportunities for meaningful discussion, so I'm particularly interested in hearing from people who lived through the Troubles and have insight into peace-building and dialogue work that continues here today.

Unlike the other Young Ambassadors on this trip, I do not have any Irish heritage, though my red hair means people often think I do! In my free time, I love walking in nature, reading (I recommend Say Nothing by Patrick Radden O'Keefe!), and playing sand volleyball.
