Guillaume Thewlis
Project Director (Voicing Opinions)

Having just graduated from a double MA program run by Warwick University, in England, and American University, in Washington D.C., Guillaume has spent 5 years studying a myriad of contemporary political topics.  Using skills gained in education and through experience in the public policy and lobbying sectors both theoretical and practical approaches to politics can provide the basis for seminar style discussions. His main focus with Step Up Teens would be to stimulate political discussion on a range of issues and to introduce young people to a variety of perspectives they might have otherwise not considered. As Project Director, Voicing Opinions, Guillaume's understanding of various cultures and government (political) systems provides teens with diverse viewpoints as he presents topics for discussion. He aslo helps others voice their opinions and organizes video chats with experts.
