Hola from Spain! With the spring semester in full swing, we know our students are itching to go on the adventure of a lifetime this summer. So, what better way to begin the fun than giving them a sneak peak?!
We are so excited to announce our 2025 GO Madrid staff! They have put their all into the preparation and planning of this amazing program, and they're just as excited as you are!
To start us off, no program is complete without our Program Director, and there is no one better than Kelsey Fikkert to take on this role! Not only have Kelsey traveled with LeadAbroad before, but she has also worked as a PD, and cannot wait to share this experience with students again. Her love for travel is inspiring, and she hopes to inspire others by reminding them to go with an open mind heart! Take full advantage and immerse yourself in each and every experience- you won't regret it!
While you'll be having the time of your life in Madrid, education still awaits! Our amazing professors, Jeffrey Herle, Nora Heist, and Veronica Menaldi are there to support students educationally, but also help them thrive during their time abroad. We absolutely adore our professors and know you will too!
Our students bring all the fun, but our interns will too! Emma Homer previously joined LeadAbroad in Cape Town and couldn't get enough of us! The memories she made are priceless and knew she was ready for more in Madrid. Just as she did, she encourages students to step outside their comfort zones will abroad- the sky is your limit! Ava Fangmann has a love for Spain and couldn't resist returning with students just as enthusiastic about travel as she was. Whether it's experiencing new cultures, learning more of the Spanish language, or meeting new people, Ava is ready for it all and can't wait to create a home away from home! Mattison Sharp is thrilled to help guide students through their incredible GO Madrid experience. She encourages those who study abroad to be as present as possible. It goes by so fast, and it'll be over before you know it! Luckily, the memories and friendships made will last a LIFETIME!
Our staff cannot wait to meet our amazing students this summer. If you'd like to join the fun abroad, check out this link and see how to get started! See you soon, travelers!
