Amed is the President of the Amed Khan Foundation and a UW–Madison alum who majored in International Relations and Political Science. His career defies any standard résumé: from working in the West Wing as a special assistant at the Peace Corps, to running rescue missions in Kabul, coordinating evacuations in Syria and Ukraine, and founding a refugee housing initiative in Greece. Amed has shown what it means to step up when the world falls apart and to do so without waiting for permission. In this conversation, we talked about what inspired him to take this path, what it really looks like to do humanitarian work in conflict zones, and how his time at UW-Madison helped shape a worldview that still guides him today. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and hope you will too.
