My study abroad in Kenya helped me find a way to navigate identity and allyship.
My AU Abroad experience has positioned me uniquely in my career because it's uncommon in a corporate setting for someone to have an international relations background or experience outside of the U.S. That perspective has helped me navigate complex business challenges, build relationships with people around the world, and think outside the box—invaluable skillsets for leading global teams and strategy.
