Nancy Castillo '05, Fulbright and Coro Fellow

Nancy Castillo '05

Nancy Castillo ’05, who went to Ecuador on a Fulbright Fellowship, was awarded a Coro fellowship for 2006-2007. Castillo was in the Public Affairs program in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Her Fulbright in Ecuador focused on remittances, money sent by emigrants to their families in their home communities, which are an extremely valuable source of income to people in Latin America.

While at Pitzer, Castillo participated in Pitzer College’s Summer Study in Japan program and the African Diaspora Studies program in Ghana.

Nancy’s professional goals include economic development in Latin America and public policy or law in the U.S. with a focus on the Latino experience.
