Abby Ferraro

Abby Ferraro (she/her) is a first-year MA student in International Relations at NYU’s Graduate School of Arts and Science and a copy editor for the Journal of Political Inquiry. She earned her BA in Philosophy and Theology from the University of Oxford, graduating with First-Class Honours and an Exhibition Scholarship. Her academic interests include gender, conflict, and political violence, with a focus on the roles of women in insurgent movements. She is also exploring the relationship between art and political memory, particularly how visual culture shapes narratives of justice and resistance. She has experience in legal research, having worked on litigation strategies and regulatory developments, as well as in policy analysis through nonprofit initiatives focused on climate solutions. Outside of her studies, she enjoys thrifting for hidden gems, dancing enthusiastically (if not always gracefully), lifting weights, and engaging with queer activism.
