Nana Boakye ’08 is a history major with a certificate in American studies. Hailing from Clearwater, FL, she enjoyed her time here at Princeton doing Orange Key, WPRB DJing, tutoring ESL and being a member of Terrace F. Club.

Being the daughter of Ghanaian immigrants, she knew that she would one day return to work on the continent. During the summer of 2006, she did. For two months she worked at the Commission on Human Rights and Administrative justice in Accra, Ghana. .Now, two years later, she will embark on a new challenge – East Africa. Even though she has no idea what to expect she feels that this is best. Now, she will face and embrace whatever challenges, surprises, and triumphs come her way
