WELCOME!
My name is Abdurrahman Ali, and I am a student at Cornell University.
I study Government and Economics with minors in Business and Public Policy. I am passionate about policy, media, and international affairs, I have experience in political research, media communication, and advocacy.
I currently work as a Media and Communication Intern at LULAC, where I analyze legislative issues, track policy changes, and create digital content. Beyond academics, I actively participate in Model UN, political debates, and translation services.
I also write blogs and love exploring thought-provoking topics in politics and global economics, always seeking to spark meaningful discussions.
