Madalyn Grutzius

Having lived abroad and traveled to more than a dozen countries, I am fortunate to have developed a multitude of international relationships. These experiences form the foundation of my advocacy for cross-cultural awareness and understanding, compassion for diverse viewpoints, and desire to collaborate with teams working to promote international development. As I begin my career, I am looking for an entry-level position with a smart, creative team working to address global challenges. With a degree in global affairs, I have studied international development, conflict resulting and peace building practices with a focus in the Middle East and North Africa. I spent a summer in the West Bank working for a human rights NGO and living in a refugee camp. I also interned in a Congressional office working on immigration issues. In addition to proficiency in Microsoft Office, my office skill set includes expertise in digital media with creative use of PowerPoint and iMovie. I am proficient in website development, including the interface and graphic design with standardized code.
