Under the leadership of Gunnar Gregory ‘07, chapter president and national career networking cochair, the New York City Regional Chapter provides innovative programming opportunities for alumni, parents, and friends in the area. In particular, due to the critical role the region plays in developing young professionals, the chapter has worked hard to develop unique career networking programming through summer experiences like internships, shadowing opportunities, and other events to expand professional circles and explore new career paths.
This summer, the chapter hosted a career networking gathering at Papillon Bistro with more than thirty alumni and parents in attendance. Many currently live in the NYC area, but part of the focus has been to offer opportunities like this to college-aged Tigers who have recently finished college. Thanks to Gunnar and his fellow chapter board members Mitch Hull ‘77, Peter Wilson ‘06, Henry Dyke ‘12, Sean Spector ‘12, Ford Beazley ‘16, and Holden Fockler ‘16 for promoting and running the event.
