about pearl
As part of the class of 20XX *insert election year, every US election cycle, my world has shifted: middle to high school, high school to university. As my own world transitions, so does the country’s. And it’s hard to keep up.
As a public policy student at Cornell University, it is more important than ever to be aware of diverse perspectives, as I aim to positively impact the future through policy. This website is a testament to my personal journey of knowing more about the world. It’s not perfect, as I continue to learn, but I hope the everyday news turned into bite-sized summaries and simple breakdowns help navigate our complex political systems.
