3/11/2025 - We welcomed students from the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media to Rubenstein today! Three of my colleagues, all UNC alums, joined the roundtable. Thanks to Stefan Prelog, Grace Gilgo, and Bud Perrone, for sharing your career insights and amazing stories with the group. A common theme from the discussions that stood out to me was that where you start (and what you initially envision) isn't always where you end up, and you have to be curious and willing to try!
