Brianna Green
Project Manager, North Carolina Business Committee for Education
|
|
Brianna Green graduated from Davidson College in 2018 with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Government. She decided to seek a career in state government because she was fascinated with how government operates since it affects virtually every aspect of our lives. After graduation, Brianna wanted to see the real-world application of everything she learned in college.
“State government felt like the best place to start as I have lived in North Carolina my entire life," said Green. "Therefore, I know what it’s like to experience various policies as a resident and wanted the behind-the-scenes perspective.”
When asked what advice she would give to students interested in working for the state, she said she would tell them to start networking and making connections as soon as possible, even outside the formal networking events.
“You never know who you will meet or how a connection can open doors for you unexpectedly down the line," said Green. "It is essential to maintain relationships with people, even if they are not in your desired industry. I have always felt called to work with people and impact my community. North Carolina has made me into the person I am today, so I jumped at the chance to give back.”
As a Program Manager for North Carolina Business Committee for Education (NCBCE), Brianna loves the opportunity to travel and meet the people she is collaborating with, the variety of projects she is assigned, and the trust her team has in her to complete the work in an environment that best suits her.
