Name: Christine Martel-Fleming
Program: International Development & Globalization
Year of graduation: May 2014
Favorite spot in Ottawa: El Camino’s! I could actually eat there every night. They have the best tacos and guacamole and chips in the city.
Fun Fact about yourself: I am obsessed with Chinese culture and politics. I hope to do my masters in Hong Kong in September.
Who is your Celebrity Crush?Harvey Specter from Suits! He makes me want to be a lawyer!
Are you involved in any extracurricular activities?I have been involved the past couple of years with the PIDSSA student federation. I volunteered with international development week and was a 101 guide for three years.
Where can we find you on a Saturday night?
Relaxing with friends over drinks.
What was your best memory at University so far?That is a tough question! I wouldn’t be able to pick one but I am definitely really glad that I got involved in school and attended different events. It gives you an opportunity to meet a ton of students from different faculties across campus. I don’t think my university experience would have been as fun if I hadn’t made this choice.
If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? I spent a couple months last year living in China. It was difficult at first to adjust to the culture shock but I met some of the coolest people and I can’t wait to return.
What are your future goals and aspirations?My future aspiration is to travel all over the world. I love Ottawa and I will probably move back here one day but I am excited for new sights and experiences.
