FEATURED ALUMNI
Our very own international agent...
DOROTHÉE BOND|'96| DEVELOPMENT
Edinburgh, Scotland

I know what you are thinking. Is she related to Agent 007? Well, she might be…

The travels, the multiple passports, and the various missions she’s pursued around the world made us eager to get in touch with our graduate globetrotter. Finally tracked down in Edinburgh, Scotland, Bond tells us about her international life... without spilling too many secrets of course ;)

Dorothée was born in France to a South African father and French mother. Growing up in the Western world, between France and the U.S., Bond studied at Rochambeau from 1986 to 1996 and continued her academic journey at Queen’s University in Ontario, Canada. There, she pursued her B.Sc in Biology until moving back to the east coast to obtain her Master’s in International Public Health at Johns Hopkins University. Equipped and ready, Bond made her way into the field of International Development. Since, Bond has made many international travels and in particular to the African continent. Her expertise, resilience, and adaptability has led her to hold various U.S state positions abroad, serving many functions in public health programs and conflict resolution operations. Living in more than 8 countries already, her work has made her no stranger to the expat lifestyle... + Learn more about Bond's experiences as Peace Corps Director of Management and Operations in Mali and South Africa .

“It was incredible to have the opportunity to live in Pretoria, I finally now understand the cultural backdrop of [my father’s] childhood, while seeing a fascinating evolution of social norms pinned against a difficult history of segregation.”

Retrouvailles & Reunions
CLASS OF 2008 | 10 ANS PLUS TARD...
" There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered. " — Nelson Mandela

You all began that journey together and as awkward, funny, goofy, it can be to see each other years later, it's a relief to know that everyone goes through changes-- something everyone can relate to. You ALL may be on different paths, but its comforting to know that you are equally coming from the same place that help build who you are today! Celebrate!
NEXT STEPS | UNE NOUVELLE VIE !
Bon vent Eugenie ('15)! Bye-bye D.C, Bonjour Paris !
