How did you find your first post-Wagner job?

I landed an internship the summer between my first and second years at Wagner, an opportunity I discovered through Wagner’s Career Services office. A position at the organization opened up a few months prior to my graduation, and I was able to transition into full-time employment from my internship upon completion of my degree.

Describe your current job.

As the founding and managing Director of the Workforce Field Building Hub, I serve as a connector between people, ideas, and initiatives throughout New York City's workforce development community - including government, philanthropy, nonprofits, education and training providers, and businesses.

How did your Wagner experience prepare you professionally for what you are doing today?

Wagner introduced me to New York City professionally, providing exposure to networks that I continue to engage and expand to this day. Through those networks and my experience at Wagner, I identified how I wanted to make an impact and in what types of settings I wanted to operate.
