My name is Niha Panjala, my pronouns are she/her, and I’ll be the FIG assistant for Carnegie Global Oregon, which I participated in my freshman year! I’m a rising second-year student studying Political Science with interest in pre-law and/or journalism. I was born in Rochester, New York, but I also lived in the south in Florida and Georgia for most of my childhood until moving to Portland, Oregon in middle school. Oregon is definitely my favorite place I’ve lived and I’m super happy to be attending UO because of how beautiful it is here. I love everything music and the outdoors as well as messing around with my film camera whenever possible. Being a part of CGO my freshman year led me to make great friends and connections I couldn’t have without it so I’m super excited to introduce more people to it. Feel free to reach out, looking forward to it!
