Dan Peltier

Graduating in May 2014 with degrees in Journalism and Political Science from UMass Amherst and I'm hunting for a job. I studied abroad in Rome, Italy spring 2013 and got to witness amazing history and see unbelievable sights. I enjoy following and writing about LGBTQ rights/marriage equality/gender identity, the politics of the U.S. Christian Right and its influences both domestically and abroad, and blogging about my travels. When I'm not writing, I'm either running, reading, or planning my next trip!
