Going to Washington (Virtual)

Description

Croft is hosting a virtual panel, Going to Washington for Croft students! Five alumni will share their experiences of working their way to DC. They will also speak to their current positions, what they do on a day-to-day basis, and what it’s really like working and living in DC. Most importantly, they will share the key steps in their trajectory from a freshman in Croft to their current position. We hope this panel will provide examples of the many avenues that you can take to make it to Washington, DC to pursue a career in the field you choose and give you an opportunity to connect with these alumni. After the panel, we will move into virtual breakout rooms. You can choose which alumna or alumnus you would like to hear from more and join their room. Alumni panelists: • Laura Fornicola | Class of 2003 | Senior International Programs Advisor for the NNSA US/UK Mutual Defense Agreement at Leidos • Jessica Holst | Class of 2007 | Deputy Country Representative for Office of Transition Initiatives at USAID: United States Agency for International Development • Bob Lynch | Class of 2008 | Senior Associate for Guidehouse National Security Sector • McDaniel Wicker | Class of 2009 | Vice President of Strategy for Babel Street • Tori Thoman | Class of 2013 | China Desk Officer, Office of Chinese and Mongolian Affairs, Bureau of East Asian and Pacific Affairs, U.S. Department of State Please register for the panel.
