ABOUT ME
Hello readers. My Name is Natalia Downer, a final year student at the University of the West Indies Mona, pursuing a degree in Writing, Literature and Publishing. I am taking the course LITS3604 in order to deepen my appreciation for the cohesiveness of individual minds, as well as to strengthen my own voice, gaining enough confidence in my original thoughts, expressions, and experiences to share with other like-minded individuals in order to create powerful thought-provoking conversations around the globe. I am excited to be able to collaborate with my fellow peers on a topic surrounding an issue that I have been very passionate about. I also hope that, by taking this course, I will be better equipped to collaborate with the people of my generation to share ideas that are important to me, to them, and, essentially, to the world!
