Grüezi, My name is Sam Utzinger, and I am a third-year Data Science student with a German minor who studied at the Universität Zürich in Switzerland. I am a triple citizen, with my mother from Oxford, England, and my father from Switzerland. Having lived on four continents, I have been fortunate to make friends from all over the world. During my semester abroad, I thrived in the rigorous academic environment at my university while also finding time to travel to 10 countries with the incredible friends I made along the way. I’m excited to connect with and grow our family of travelers!

Hello, my name is Paige Oliver! I am a senior at NAU and plan to graduate this May with a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental and Sustainability Studies. While pursuing my degree, I have had the privilege to pursue multiple study abroad opportunities in Italy, Hawai’i, and Australia.
