Undergraduate Departmental Representatives
The Undergraduate Departmental Representatives serve as a resource and representative for fellow majors and minors and potential majors and minors, and bring student concerns and/or ideas to the program faculty. They also provide feedback to the program chair, undergraduate advising head, and faculty regarding scheduling problems and course offerings, and help organize events for majors, minors, and other interested students.

Julianna (she/her) is a Senior triple majoring in Anthropology, Hispanic Studies, and Latin American, the Caribbean, and Latinx Studies (LACLS). She is also minoring in International Global Studies (IGS). She’s passionate about Anthropology and is currently leaning towards focusing on archeology, but she still hasn’t made a commitment to a career between archaeology and sociocultural anthropology. She worked during the summer of 2024 with El Museo de Antropologia (the Anthropology Museum) in Mexico City where she identified and photographed artifacts uncovered in Puebla. She’s really passionate about Latinx representation, and social justice. When she’s not working on her studies she likes to crochet, thrift, travel, and craft!
Lily (she/her) is a senior double majoring in anthropology and psychology, with a minor in East Asian studies. Focused on linguistic and cultural anthropology, her heart lies in multispecies ethnography: what can anthropology do at—or beyond—the boundaries of the human? Her current research explores kin dynamics between Gen Z and their pets. Recently, Lily has also served on the e-board for Brandeis’ chapter of Partners In Health Engage, helping organize interdisciplinary panels on reproductive and mental health. She hopes to pursue a career in talk therapy, integrating both her majors into a reflexive practice informed by queer and decolonial thought. In the meantime, she spends spare moments baking, drawing, petting creatures, taking herself on long walks, and smelling the flowers.
