It’s official: I’ve joined @BallardFirm as a Partner in the Washington office, launching our first European offices in Budapest & Warsaw.

Businesses, investors & governments are navigating complex policy environments, & Ballard has an unmatched track record. Honored to join!

Chad Pecknold is an outstanding pick to support President Trump’s agenda through public outreach at the Department of Homeland Security.

Faith builds on strong communities. Few people have contributed as much in recent years to join faith & patriotism.

Good luck, @ccpecknold!

From Ashgabat to Santiago, from Cape Town to Seoul—some favorites and a lot of never-before-seen snaps from three years, thirty country visits, and exchanges with many more at @hiia_budapest!

After three years, today I am stepping aside from my duties as president of the Hungarian Institute of International Affairs. It was a pleasure to meet Minister @_OrbanAnita to discuss the Institute’s recent work. I am proud of what we have accomplished in developing deeper relationships for Hungary around the world—from Ashgabat to Washington, from Cape Town to New Delhi, and beyond.

Coming from the United States to lead the @hiia_budapest has been a challenging and rewarding experience. I am grateful for the opportunity, and especially for the support of my sixty-five colleagues at the Institute, whose dedication has built the Institute into what it is today. We have built a firm foundation, and I wish them continued success!
