Ethan Copeland
Wassup! My name is Ethan Copeland, and before living in Nebraska, I was born and grew up in Minas Gerais, a prominent state in Brazil. I’m doing a dual major in Political Science with a Foreign & National Security Affairs concentration, and Economics, with minor degrees in History and Native American Studies. I’m an avid reader, focusing primarily on history and science fiction, with a noticeable interest in horror. I enjoy spending time with my friends and have an innate interest in traveling throughout the world and enjoy it as much as I can! During my sophomore year, I was in an exchange program at the Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado in São Paulo where I got to experience my home country again. I’m more than happy to share my experiences, and desire to help others explore the world on their terms. If you have any questions or want to study abroad too, feel free to stop by the office and I’ll be more than happy to help! |

Dani Hernandez
Hello, my name is Daniela Hernandez, you can call me Dani. I am a third-year student, my major is Sociology with International Studies and English minors. One of my favorite things to do is sing karaoke, go out to grab coffee, and learning languages. This past Spring semester 2024 I studied abroad in South Korea! I was able to put into practice the language I was learning and also experience the Korean culture. This experience was one of the most rewarding experiences of my university life in which I was also able to make amazing friendships.
