Candidate:

Ms. Refugee Agency

About Me:

I spent 3.5 years in financial services consulting, and moved to gov & public service consulting at the Big 4. I had always been interested in government international affairs (I grew up between Texas and France), so I wanted to pivot. I have primarily supported refugee resettlement gov agencies doing operations/ financial analysis, and I manage 10 people.
