Alderman Kacie Starr Triplett is heading east. Far East.
Starr has been invited to represent the United States on an international exchange program to Vietnam. The American Council of Young Political Leaders selected Triplett after receiving her nomination from Congressman Russ Carnahan, her former boss.
“I am excited and humbled to be part of this valuable program,” Triplett said. “I look forward to forging lasting relationships with other young leaders from the United States and Vietnam.”
Triplett will be part of a seven-member delegation that will travel throughout Vietnam from October 12-26. The delegates will meet with national, regional and local political officials, business and civic leaders.
