Dominic Sackley
@dominicsackley
Aspiring political analyst with a focus on research and policy.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and passionate student at Oberlin College, pursuing a B.A. in Politics. My academic journey has equipped me with a strong foundation in political research and analysis, international law, and public policy. I have engaged deeply with topics such as social movements, international security, and the dynamics of American democracy, which have shaped my understanding of the complexities of governance and policy-making.
In my professional experience, I have served as an Immigration Lawyer Assistant, where I researched immigration laws and prepared educational materials for nonprofits. Additionally, my internship with the Clean Air Task Force allowed me to analyze hydrogen fueling infrastructure and policy measures, enhancing my research skills and ability to synthesize complex information. I have also taken on leadership roles as an OSCA Board Representative and a member of the Oberlin Student Honor Committee, where I developed policies and facilitated discussions on critical issues affecting my peers.
