Praise from the DoG Street Journal:
" The 'Making a Living Making a Difference' Symposium left me with a newfound assurance, based in an increased understanding of the professional world and the knowledge that there were William and Mary alumni -- similar to me in that they were once just as uncertain of their future -- who made it in the competitive job market."
-Serena Ngoh, "Yes, The Cohen Career Center is Here To Help," DSJ April 2015

Smith previously served as cultural affairs officer at the U.S. Consulate in Istanbul, Turkey and political/consular officer in Lagos, Nigeria.

InternationalRelationsEDU.org
"In a world interconnected by global trade and commerce, and with nation states facing common issues related to everything from environmental sustainability to national security, establishing and improving relations among nations is more crucial than ever. As leaders from academia, industry, intergovernmental agencies and nongovernmental organizations alike seek to resolve global issues and achieve common goals, international relations as a field of study and applied practice has emerged as the great unifier.
InternationalRelationsEDU.org was created as a resource for those that would work to support and foster a greater level of understanding and unity among nation states working to resolve humanitarian crises, protect the environment and neutralize security threats, all while maintaining and growing a thriving global economy."
