Hi! I'm Angel! I'm a rising freshman @Columbia pursuing PoliSci and a minor in either Arabic/French. I speak English, Spanish, and French and am currently learning Arabic after my summer abroad in Morocco via NSLI-Y. I will be hosting Arabic sessions and maybe reopening French sessions as well. I like lilies, baking, language learning, and thrifting. Any questions at all, please don't hesitate to ask! -AR
