Sophia Micciche
Hello, my name is Sophia Micciche and I am from Soldotna, Alaska. I plan to major in English and minor in business. I am ecstatic to join the Florence scholars program so that I can become more knowledgeable about the Italian culture and my heritage. Growing up with a Sicilian grandfather and grandma from the abandoned city of Craco, I was taught about the beauty of Italian culture, cuisine, and art. I’m excited to delve deeper into the culture and learn more about the world through this program!

My name is Jayne Jones and I am from Phoenix, Arizona. I plan to major is business law and public policy. Studying abroad has always been an opportunity that I have looked forward to. Studying abroad in Italy would help me pursue my passion for traveling and trying new things. I am most excited for the food and emerging myself in the culture. I think studying abroad would help me see and understand different cultures. Studying abroad is important to me because I will have the opportunity to be able to see a different part of the world that is different from my own.

Hello, my name is Roxy Boggs, and I am from Ridgecrest, California. I plan on majoring in Physics, and I’m excited to be a part of the Florence scholar program as I’ve always been interested in exploring the world. I can’t wait to know more and appreciate the rich culture and history of Italy, while also taking away valuable experiences and lessons from the Italian culture. I hope to expand my knowledge not only in culture and societal life, but also how many other people explore physics and look on the world.
