JK '11


I'm a member of the SOM class of 2011. After graduating from UVA with a BS in Systems & Information Engineering, I spent the next six years working in International Development. First as a Peace Corps volunteer in the Kingdom of Tonga, then based in DC working for USAID's Office of Transition Initiatives, and most recently in East Timor as the Deputy Chief of Party for the USAID-funded Strengthening Property Rights in Timor-Leste project. I came to SOM to refine my management skills and aim to move to the private sector after graduating to work in high technology and/or renewable energy.
