The chapter also hosted Sen. Rick Santorum, Steve Forbes, Marc Thiessen, Christina Hoff Somers, and Bay Buchanan, in addition to annual 9/11 Never Forget Project, Freedom Week, and Cemetery of the Innocents activism events. During her time at GW, Kara landed an internship through YAF’s National Journalism Center (NJC) and was placed at NBC News’ Washington Bureau.

She is excited to highlight the hard work of YAF activists around the country and to hopes to further promote and inspire the future leaders of the Conservative Movement.
