Study Abroad Advisor Erica Ward

Erica holds a Bachelor’s in Foreign Languages and
International Studies from Bellarmine University with minors in Economics and
History. At the beginning of her collegiate years at Bellarmine, she
participated in the Kentucky Institute of International Studies (KIIS) Paris I
program. During the later years, she studied at EM Strasbourg in Strasbourg,
France and Université Paul-Valéry in Montpellier, France. She enjoyed
living la vie française so much that she moved back to
France upon graduation to teach English to high school students near Lille,
France.
She is glad to be back in Louisville to encourage Bellarmine
students to participate in the international opportunities as she did which
were such powerful experiences for her. Her hobbies include reading, walking,
and making artwork.
