The UNC MPA program gave me a great beginning to my career. Its focus on a broad understanding of public service and public management helped me know that I wanted to work specifically in the public sector. After many years working in local government and public universities, I have transitioned to a coaching and consulting practice that serves public sector leaders, managers, and organizations. It is fulfilling and gratifying to work with others who share that same desire for public good.
