Iris is a junior at Harvard College concentrating in Social Studies and Economics. Within Social Studies, her primary research interests lie at the intersection of religion, politics, and education – particularly in relation to secularism and civil religion in the U.S. Beyond academics, she volunteers with legal aid organizations and directs operations at the John F. Kennedy Jr. Forum at the Institute of Politics. She hopes to attend law school and specialize in international law while pursuing her academic interest in religious studies.
