Welcome back, we are thrilled to host Esther Benjamin, CEO and Executive Director of World Education Services.

I have known Esther for many years, through organizations and position changes; it is fulfilling to see the successes she has accomplished and contributions she has made, and to be able to share those moments with you.

From Sri Lanka, her family was seeking opportunity which Esther has created time and time again for herself and others, living, working, and traveling in over 100 countries, and organizations across sectors.

Summarizing all of the journey together, Esther said, “The theme through my work experience would be: drive impact at scale.”

International students, refugees, immigrants, are at the heart of the work of World Education Services. Real empathy and appreciation come authentically from her own personal experience of immigrating to the United States.

Real. Honest. Hopeful. Those are the words I would use to describe this episode. Can’t wait for you to listen.
