I am excited to complete my degree and someday continue my studies in graduate school. In the meantime, I have personal goals of advancing my language skills, furthering my art practice in book arts, photography, and other mediums, and gaining more professional experience in the art industry though internships and jobs. I have a variety of research interests that span from ancient Roman archaeology, Medieval jewelry, and Renaissance painting to new media like collage, video games, and comics. As an artist myself, I am interested in projects where I can use my skills in combination with my enjoyment of reading, writing, and research. My ultimate goal is to relocate internationally for work or school (whichever comes first) so that I can use my language skills and be surrounded by the art, architecture, and cultures I have studied for over a decade.

Foster children in Indiana face serious educational obstacles, which contribute to their ongoing instability. Frequent placement changes disrupt their education, raising dropout rates and lowering academic achievement. This research project aims t ... o examine the educational experiences of foster children in Indiana and the relationship between these experiences and increased rates of homelessness aftercare. It will examine state-level data and previous literature to determine the main factors influencing these results. Only 54.2% of foster adolescents graduated on time in 2021, compared to 86.7% of all students, according to data from the Indiana Department of Education. Foster children also have a higher chance of being disciplined, expelled, or held back a grade, all of which might impede their academic advancement. The results imply that educational disruptions have a major effect on foster youths' stability and chances for success in the future. The analysis suggests extending foster care services past the age of 18, establishing focused educational assistance programs, and offering stable housing choices both during and after care in order to address these problems. *This entry's link is deactivated or broken.
