Gabby is a Health Science student with a minor in Global Studies and Chinese. She currently lives in Norwich, Vermont (when she isn\u2019t at UVM!). At home, she speaks both Portuguese and English, which helped her develop Spanish language skills. Gabby heard about Huertas during a class at UVM with Professor Montesano about race\/ethnicity and immigration who suggested she apply to this internship. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; When asked\nwhat about Huertas appeals to her, Gabby spoke of her passion for humanitarian\nwork, love of languages, and desire to learn how to garden. Huertas is one of three\nnon-profit organizations that Gabby currently works with; she is also a Communications\nAssistant for the Himalayan Cataract Project and a volunteer for the DREAM Project.\nIn the future, Gabby is interested in attending law school and pursuing a\ncareer in global health and humans right policy (preferably at the United\nNations!). Her dream job is to start her own non-profit for global health and human\nrights issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This Huertas season, Gabby is most excited to make a positive impact in the greater VT community, meet inspiring people, and help them in any way she can. She is also excited to get to know the Huertas intern team better\u2014in her own words, it takes a special kind of person to do humanitarian work. During this semester, Gabby believes that Huertas will help her gain real-world experience working with people, awareness of privilege\/how she can do more with the privilege that she has, and consciousness about the realities of world outside of her college bubble where half an hour away people live in poverty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>             In her work with Huertas, Gabby has several important goals: make sure that the Latinx migrant community in Vermont has all of their needs and rights met to the best of our abilities, and to give a positive image of American (US) people. Her most important goal, by far, is to make sure that the Latinx migrant community is treated as people and not as an inferiority in Vermont.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-06-at-1.16.12-PM.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-310\" width=\"411\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-06-at-1.16.12-PM.jpeg 548w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/huertas\/files\/2019\/03\/WhatsApp-Image-2019-03-06-at-1.16.12-PM-206x300.jpeg 206w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 411px) 100vw, 411px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>************************************************************************<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a1Bienvenidos,\nGabby!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a1Este semestre el equipo de Huertas da una bienvenida a Gabby, nuestra nueva becaria de campo!

Durante este semestre, Gabby desea que Huertas le ayudar\u00e1 ganar experiencia de mundo real trabajando con personas, conocimiento de privilegio\/c\u00f3mo puede hacer m\u00e1s con el privilegio que tiene, y conciencia sobre las realidades del mundo fuera de su burbuja universitaria, donde a media hora de distancia las personas viven en pobreza. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; En su trabajo con Huertas, Gabby tiene\nvarias metas importantes: para asegurarse que todas las necesidades y derechos de\nla comunidad de migrantes Latinx en Vermont &nbsp;han ser cumplido lo mejor que se podamos proporcionar\ny para dar una imagen positiva de los estadunidenses. Su meta m\u00e1s importante de\nlejos es asegurarse de que la comunidad de migrantes Latinx sea tratada como\ngente y no como una inferioridad en Vermont. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome, Gabby! \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This semester the Huertas team welcomes Gabby, our new field intern!
