About Chris:

Chris Lee was a 2018 Boren Scholar to Korea where he studied Korean.

He later completed his service requirement with the Department of Defense, where he continues to serve the U.S. government.ÌýÌý

"The Boren Scholarship opened numerous doors in the national security apparatus for me. My time in Korea provided me with the insight and language skills for effective cultural diplomacy, while the Ãå±±½ûµØ gave me the resources, face time, and guidance I needed to find the right place to apply and employ my skills."Ìý
