I’m passionate about people and societies and believe in the creation of long-term and intentional change – not only through conversation but through necessary action. I have a rich history of public speaking and debating, which has shaped me to be a strong communicator and critical thinker. My passionate and people-oriented nature has lead me to pursue a career in the political sphere as I wish to be an active member and architect of the world we live in.”

Hi! I am Conrado, I’m 17 years old and I’m from Buenos Aires, Argentina. I go to Monseñor Dillon School and I am currently studying a baccalaureate in Business and Economics.

I am passionate about writing, languages, political sciences and education. During the previous years, I had the chance to immerse myself in both online and in person Global Studies courses that were key to define my career course in the future: International Relations.

I truly believe in Global Education as the way to embrace a worldwide awareness of an international community in order to create the integrity and union needed to achieve greater goals all together.
