About the Career Center Speaker

Laura Sheehan, Associate Director of the SFS Career Center

Having successfully navigated the personal and professional challenges of living in eight countries over the last 20 years, Laura is thrilled to be able to use those experiences to assist her fellow international affairs professionals – both novice and seasoned – in their individual quests to launch a new career, search for a new job, redefine their professional goals, or establish a portable professional identity.

Laura has held many different jobs, moved many, many times…and all the while, was building the essential skills and invaluable life experiences required to find and define her own calling. She is a licensed U.S. lawyer, a certified career coach (PCC) and strategist…and maybe most importantly – a connector and a personal advocate. Laura truly wants to see you succeed.

Laura is also an accomplished public speaker and podcast guest! Check out her recent TEDx Talk from June 2018 in Hanoi, Vietnam! Now with more than 1M views, this message is one she is honored to share with the world!
