I'm so proud and energized by the critical work that James Bell and his amazing team at Alliance Strategies are doing to connect people in meaningful ways around the world.

A Meaningful Exchange with Ambassador Geraldine Byrne Nason It was an honor to meet with Ambassador Geraldine Byrne Nason, Ireland’s Ambassador to the United States, during her visit. Our discussion centered on the deep economic and cultural ties between Texas and Ireland, as well as the enduring friendship between our two nations. One highlight was the remarkable role of the J-1 Visa Program, which brings 8,000 Irish youth to the U.S. every summer. These rites-of-passage trips are far more than just travel opportunities—they are a bridge connecting generations across the Atlantic, cultivating future leaders and strengthening the bond between Ireland and the United States. Cultural exchange programs like the J-1 play an irreplaceable role in shaping global perspectives, nurturing mutual understanding, and celebrating the shared history and values between our countries. I’m proud to advocate for these initiatives and to play a part in fostering opportunities that build lasting connections. Thank you, Ambassador Byrne Nason, for the inspiring conversation and your dedication to enhancing the ties that unite Ireland and the U.S. #CulturalExchange #LeadershipDevelopment #Ireland #USA #J1Visa #GlobalConnections #IrishDevelopmentAgency #EnterpriseIreland Alliance for International Exchange Alliance Abroad Group GeoVisions Stepwest Stepabroad
