"I'm excited to be continuing my journey in public service as a full-time graduate student pursuing my Master's in Public Administration. I enrolled in the Accelerated Master's program to gain an early start toward a career focused on policy and nonprofit work."


Position: Undergraduate and Accelerated MPA Student

Education: Currently majoring in Public Service and Nonprofit Leadership at UNH Manchester

Why Carsey? I enrolled in the Accelerated Master's program to gain an early start toward a career focused on policy and nonprofit work. Throughout this program, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with peers who bring real-world experience to the classroom, deepening my understanding of public administration. I'm currently completing a Project Development pathway, where I'm working with NH Housing Finance to design and implement a project that promotes building manuals for homeowners—strengthening community engagement and resource accessibility in the region.

Looking Ahead: Previously, I interned with New Hampshire Legal Assistance through UNH's Semester for Impact program, attending legislative sessions and contributing to policy advocacy efforts. Looking ahead, I'm passionate about continuing work in the policy field, with a strong interest in grant writing and research. I'm excited to keep learning, connecting, and growing in this meaningful space.
