Meet AOT's 2023 Alumni Council!

AOT is proud to announce the members of our 2023 Alumni Council! The Alumni Council, an initiative started in 2020 to serve AOT's growing alumni network, helps lead alumni programming by creating and fostering a close knit and connected community. Members of the council work together to lead initiatives that meet their peers' academic and professional needs, including events, educational initiatives, and engagement opportunities. Through a competitive application process, 12 leaders were selected to serve on the 2023 Alumni Council.

​Along with hosting meaningful professional and networking events, the Alumni Council members will make recommendations to AOT leadership concerning a variety of matters impacting the AOT alumni community. They will also serve as leaders and liaisons to AOT's growing alumni network, with the overall mission of fostering community and creating pathways into technology careers.​

​Our Alumni Council represents AOT's belief that the young people we serve are leaders who should be directly involved in organizational governance. Serving on the Council allows our young people to further develop their professional and leadership skills, while shaping the way AOT serves its current and previous students. We are very excited for all they will do to support our America On Tech alumni community. Meet our new leaders below!
