Louie Al-Hashimi is driven by service. It started in high school, he said, when his history teacher encouraged him to get involved in community service and he began volunteering at a local food pantry, supporting road cleanup projects, and organizing school concerts for charity.

“That, coupled with my studies, encouraged me to pursue public service,” said Al-Hashimi, who earned his master’s in public administration from �鶹��Ƶ in 2020. “Having the opportunity to build or facilitate a connection with other people—that’s what I’m drawn to.”

Dr. Laurence Bray is the Senior Associate Provost for Graduate Education and leader of the Graduate Division at �鶹��Ƶ.
