Hi, my name is Anthony Martinez, and I’m honored to share that I’ve been selected for the CBYX Young Professionals Program, a year-long exchange sponsored by the U.S. Congress and German Bundestag. Fewer than 1% of applicants are accepted, making this a truly life-changing opportunity.

Over the next year, I’ll be living with a host family in Munich, studying at the Technical University of Munich, interning, and serving as a citizen ambassador, helping build cultural and professional bridges between the U.S. and Germany.

I’m a proud first-generation college graduate from Arizona State University with a degree in Economics. I currently work as a teacher and bookkeeper, and I’ve interned in the U.S. Senate and contributed to international research and policy efforts. My dream is to serve in the U.S. State Department as an Economic Officer focused on energy and sustainability diplomacy.

This next chapter is incredibly exciting but also a big financial leap. Living abroad for a year comes with many expenses, and I’m asking for support to help make this journey possible. Whether through a donation or by sharing this page, your help means the world to me.

Thank you for believing in me.

With love and appreciation,

Anthony E.S. Martinez
