Hi there GLS! My name is Jakob and I am from Düsseldorf, Germany. Previous to coming to Duke I have studied Law with International Relations at the University of Sussex in southern England. I have a passion for politics, and law, and am excited to expand my knowledge, especially within economical areas. Besides that, I love to play field hockey, tennis, as well as piano. I am more than excited for the GLS journey to start!
