Marietta College Award, 2015

New York, N.Y. It was an honor to return to one of my two hometowns in Ohio recently to accept an award for leadership from Marietta College. This accolade was in recognition of my efforts with Orphans International Worldwide and the J. Luce Foundation, particularly for our initiatives in nurturing, supporting, and educating Young Global Leaders.

During my visit, I had the privilege of engaging with many students in the McDonough Leadership Program at Marietta College. I shared insights, offered advice, and discussed the importance of global leadership and social responsibility. I was also invited to mentor several students remotely from New York, continuing our mission of fostering the next generation of leaders.

This video chronicles my journey back to my roots, the warm reception from the college community, and the profound experiences that underscore the significance of leadership, mentorship, and giving back to the community.
