"At Georgetown, I will enhance my critical thinking, research, presentation, and other practical skills necessary to become an effective analyzer of complex political and foreign policy issues. As I improve my practical skills, I am interested in building on my understanding of Japanese affairs, especially its security policy, while expanding into various topics associated with the security of the greater Indo-Pacific region. I hope to interact with the various perspectives that are the faculty, classmates, and beyond to build a more multi-faceted understanding of these complex issues."
