Before attending graduate school, Semina worked across the public, nonprofit, and private sectors, including at the United Nations, where she supported efforts to track global capital investments aligned with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). She also worked in New York City’s construction industry, managing research and public-private partnerships that advanced economic development and sustainability initiatives.
