My name is Carson Rayhill, a second-year graduate student at the Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. I graduated from Xavier University in 2022 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (Finance) and a Bachelor of Arts (German) with minors in Political Economy and Peace Studies. In 2016, I was awarded the Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Scholarship through the U.S. Department of State. Since then, I have developed economic and financial analysis and leadership skills, working as a Political/Economic intern at the U.S. Embassy to the Holy See, a Contract Specialist with the U.S. Department of Energy, as well as various economics/finance positions with non-profits and the private sector. I hope to use these experiences and combine them with the ones I am currently gaining as a Junior Research Assistant at the World Bank (Social Protections and Labor) to promote a global, integral economic development, all founded on a strong ethical foundation.
