Monica Orillo moderated ambassador talk

Last week, the East-West Center hosted a student town hall with Ambassador to Japan Rahm Emanuel and Ambassador to South Korea Philip Goldberg. The town hall focused on their respective roles in efforts to strengthen trilateral relations among the United States, Japan and South Korea. MAAS student Monica Orillo moderated the Question and Answer part of the program.

Monica is a Pickering Fellow, and recently received her post-graduation Foreign Service placement. Moderating this event gave her the exciting opportunity to connect her academic work to her professional career, and gain important experience as she prepares for her upcoming position as a Public Diplomacy Officer.
