LC Update
AIESEC Seattle
Update provided by Arianne Kim,
LCP, AIESEC in Seattle
|
AIESEC Seattle is going strong with 32 members. Their goals this year include making their members more engaged while sending five members on global exchanges, and partnering for one iGT. AIESEC in Seattle was recently awarded the Most Improved Recognized Student Organization (RSO) in 2022 by their university!
The LC would love to have alumni support! Alumni would be welcomed as mentors, and are also invited to participate in events open to alumni. As of now, the Seattle LC doesn’t have any iGT but encourages alumni to contact them if their company might be interested, or if they know of any other local companies that might be good targets. They have had great demand for iGT in the past. For example, during the peak of Covid, they received over 300 applicants in a month for just one opportunity!

AIESEC Life is honored to announce
Holly Kennedy Price
as our newest addition to the Board of Directors
With a degree in International Studies from the University of Washington, Holly joined AIESEC her sophomore year to build business skills, to obtain international experience, and for a desire to be part of an organization with a focus on building cross-cultural understanding. As part of the Reception Committee she enjoyed welcoming new trainees to Seattle and helping them get situated. Holly was Local Committee President from 1989-90, and was lucky to have two traineeships, first in Finland during college, and then in the Czech Republic after graduating.
Holly is a product strategist for PwC, where she currently works across sectors to help build go to market strategies and innovative digital solutions for both clients and internal teams. Holly’s early career was spent focused internationally on driving market penetration and expansion for products in Europe and Latin America. With several years in various consulting roles in the US, Latin America, and Europe, she advised on product strategies, implemented technology solutions in market, and evaluated market expansion opportunities. Along with large enterprise experience, Holly started two small businesses where she held both sales and delivery roles to grow revenue and drive market expansion.
With her free time, Holly enjoys bike riding, kayaking, baking, and travel. And although getting very rusty with lack of practice, Holly speaks Czech and French, along with basic Russian and Spanish.
