Nicolás Velasco Pérez

Hello everyone! My name is Nicolás (Nico) Velasco Pérez. I’m from Medellín, Colombia and I’m currently a first-year at DKU. I’m almost certain that I will major in Political Economy with a track in Economics. I am very excited about being part of SAB! Apart from SAB, I am a First Year Experience Program Assistant, the chair member of the First Year Student Advisory Council and an Arete Fellow at Duke Effective Altruism. Academically, I am very interested in Fintech, Blockchain, Sustainability and Development Economics. Beyond that, I love running, hiking, reading and contributing to my community in any way I can. I am very excited about being part of SAB!
