At the FAC, we are very fortunate to have dedicated interns join our team every semester and summer. They, along with our volunteers, are at the foundation of the Centre’s success in promoting French language culture and heritage throughout New Hampshire and beyond.

Current Interns:

Jasmine Grace, High School Intern

Bonjour! My name is Jasmine Grace, and I am currently a high school junior. I am writing the Franco-American Centre’s blog (among other things), and sincerely enjoy this opportunity to learn about French culture in New England and around the world. It’s great to be working with the motivated and knowledgeable people who run this organization. I’m learning French in school and became involved with the FAC when I began to help organize the monthly Teen Prêt-à-Parler event. I am grateful for this wonderful opportunity to work with the FAC! 

Hekmat Hatab Ansari, Southern New Hampshire University

Hello, my name is Hekmat Hatab Ansari. I am originally from Beirut, Lebanon, and I live in Minneapolis, Minnesota. I am senior at Southern New Hampshire University, aspiring to graduate in December of 2022 with a Bachelors in Graphic Design and Media Arts. As a Lebanese I have learned and spoke French for as long as I can remember, and when I was presented with the opportunity to intern for the FAC I was excited and thrilled to be putting in all the knowledge I received in school and my personal connection to the French community. I am exited to share my knowledge in Graphic Design and to contribute to French community and to advance my knowledge of France and the French language.

Carolyn Hill, Saint Anselm College

Bonjour! My name is Carolyn Hill, and I am a senior English major at Saint Anselm College. I also have two minors in French and Gender Studies. I am a new member of the FAC intern team and will be helping out with grant writing, as well as other writing and editing projects. I am excited to learn and work with the other talented interns and staff members at the FAC! It is wonderful to see so many people passionate about sharing their love of French culture. I cannot wait to see what the rest of the semester brings me with the FAC!

Kaleb Houle-Lawrence, High School Intern

Bonjour tout le monde! My name is Kaleb Houle-Lawrence and I am a high school junior. Along with Jasmine, I am in charge of writing a bimonthly blog post for the Franco-American Centre. I will be helping plan various events with the other interns as well. I chose to intern with FAC because I have a deep-seated passion for both the French language and French culture. Being able to blog about something I am so passionate about is certainly an incredible opportunity. FAC is truly home to the physical representation of this passion, including the group Teen Prêt-à-Parler, which I helped develop and continue to help run on a monthly basis. FAC really is a place for self-development and discovery, which I have found to be crucial during my relationship with the organization and its leaders. I am honored to intern with this organization and the wonderful team behind the scenes of it all. 

Jillian Jacques, University of New Hampshire

Hello, my name is Jillian Jacques. I was born and raised in New Hampshire and I am a recent graduate of the University of New Hampshire (Go Wildcats!). I studied Business Writing and Digital Studies and minored in Spanish and Linguistics. I have 10 siblings, and the best parents anyone could ask for. Both my parents come from French Canadian backgrounds and learned some French. I am excited to contribute to French culture through grant writing at the Franco-American Centre! I hope to learn new skills and have fun while doing so!

Victoria Trudeau – Southern New Hampshire University

Victoria is a recent graduate of Southern New Hampshire University and has joined the FAC team as a Graphic Design and Marketing intern. Despite growing up with a very French last name, Victoria has never had the opportunity to explore her heritage like she has been able to with the Franco-American Centre; though she does very much enjoy French animated films! She always looks forward to working with her fellow interns to make FAC services and events a success.
