Jeske, Luke Brian, University of Florida

Hello, my name is Luke! I am neither the son of Darth Vader nor an onion. I studied history and Russian language at the University of Florida. My childhood was spent in the blessedly warm, although eternally humid and sometimes oppressive, climate of South Florida. I enjoy running, swimming and biking – I did triathlon during my time in college. I moved to Russia to improve my Russian language skills and learn more about contemporary life in Russia. In the future, I will return to America to continue my studies of Russian history in graduate school. I am often known for my lively and naturally talkative personality.
