Avery is a rising junior at the George Washington University studying political science and French, and she will be joining the ACE team as a member of the immigration policy team. While participating in an all-female national security scholar program, Avery’s work was published in a novel by CIA Senior Counterterrorism Advisor, Gina Bennett. Having taken courses in human rights theory and border studies, Avery’s interests include policy surrounding the protection of migrant workers in the U.S. and the reunification of children unjustly separated from their families at the border. She is also interested in researching European immigration, particularly the hazardous conditions faced by Middle Eastern and North African migrants when crossing the Mediterranean. In her free time, Avery enjoys reading, painting, and playing with her foster cat, Tito. Avery is passionate about women’s and LGBTQ+ rights and frequently takes part in protests and marches in Washington, D.C., in support of these causes and many more. Avery is thrilled to be researching and writing for the ACE team this summer!
