After graduation from Notre Dame, Anna returned to Kansas City to volunteer with AmeriCorps, where she led a project focused on developing a summer experiential learning camp designed to teach entrepreneurship to low- to moderate-income teen girls.  The project involved coordination with local high schools and colleges, identifying key partnerships, securing funding through grants and donations, and adapting an entrepreneurship curriculum to best meet the needs of the students.    

 

Anna went on to pursue her law degree at the University of Kansas School of Law, earning her Juris Doctor and a certificate in Environmental & Natural Resources Law.
