Misconceptions

Jordan Rowley

Jordan Rowley has lived overseas and traveled extensively. She spent her formative years in the United Kingdom and was fortunate to travel to over 60 countries and 7 continents. She has seen people living on minefields, women being outcast from society, children begging for scraps, and refugees looking for a haven. She learned how fortunate some individuals are to benefit from strong local, corporate, and governmental guidance, and wants to work in regions dramatically misunderstood and stereotyped but full of potential. One of her greatest role models, Nelson Mandela, said "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead." Mandela ignited a spark of hope for a better tomorrow that drives her to this day. Jordan graduated from Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts with a Bachelor of Arts degree in both Mathematics & Statistics and Government in May 2022.
