My name is Fatima Iftikhar and I am a senior at George Mason University majoring in Government and International Politics with a minor in International Security and a concentration in International Relations. This fall I a member of the Global Politics Fellowship Program and am interning with Democracy OnAir.

I decided to become a member of Democracy onAir because of their initiatives and fields of work. This non-profit works to inform the public on current politics and government in the United States and I want to help be a part of this mission. Local governance and electoral politics are vital topics in Government which I want to learn more about, and this is a perfect opportunity to do so.
