Bio: From being born and raised in the Bay Area to getting to explore various parts of the world by studying abroad, Diana has transitioned from being a Student Assistant with SJSU's Study Abroad and Away office to now being part of the professional staff. She is wrapping up her B.A. in Anthropology with a minor in Art History, and hopes to continue her education by attending graduate school in Germany, where she first studied abroad.
