IDCE Students Profiles  Kristina Forcier (ES&P '2011)  Kristina
Forcier (USA) earned a B.A in economics and international
studies from Manhattan College in 2007. She also had the
opportunity to study sustainable economic programs and
international development at American Universitys School of
International Service. Since receiving her degree she has worked
at Fidelity Investments where through analysis of the market it
became increasingly evident that the effects of global
capitalism have compromised our perception of the natural world,
resulting in undermined economic growth and environmental
systems. Van Dexter is looking forward to exploring a
sustainable relationship between economic systems, particularly
food systems, and ecology as well as the role of nature in
psychological, emotional and community development.
