JESSICA PIQUET

 

When I graduated from American University in December 2008, I was not quite sure where I fit into Washington's working world. As an undergrad, I interned with the Embassy of Australia assisting defense personnel and their families moving to the United States with the transition process and with the Peking University Center for Women's Law and Legal Studies performing research for various women's rights cases. These experiences instilled me with a love for helping others, and taught me the many ways in which an individual can do this. 

After receiving a B.A. in International Studies and a minor in Chinese Language Studies, I hit the ground running as a Project Manager at a local translation company. However, I realized that I missed performing in a position which allowed me to help and serve others. I am excited to join the team at G&H and use my skills to assist the brave men and women of the emergency response community. 

In my free time I love to learn new languages, run, explore the many parts of D.C. that I have yet to discover, or delve into a good book.
