Bio:

Hi, I’m Abdullah! I grew up in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia. Right after high school, I moved to the US to learn English as a second language at CSU, Colorado. Then I pursued my bachelor’s degree in Science and Mechanical Engineering in Pennsylvania. In early 2021, I returned to Saudi Arabia and worked as a project sales engineer. However, my passion for public administration soon led me to the University of Washington to pursue my MPA. I am also pursuing a concurrent Master of Supply Chain Management at UW’s Foster School of Business.

Why I chose Evans:

When deciding on an MPA program, I undertook thorough research and consulted many in the field. The Evans School consistently emerged at the top of my list for its outstanding reputation, depth of knowledge, and the opportunities it offers its alumni. Therefore, I decided to join one of the best policy schools around.
