“Studying abroad with IFSA was the best decision I’ve ever made because it gave me so many incredible experiences and friends around the world. Now, I am excited to help fellow students chase their global dreams just like me!”
Education

Travel Experience
Madison has always loved travelling whether it be visiting family around the U.S. or international trips over summer break. This love for exploring new places lead her to study abroad for a semester with IFSA at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. Madison continues to look for locations to add to her travel bucket list, hopefully visiting all of the continents one day!
