Notes from MIZ KΔ
explained. "I spend a lot of time thinking
about how actions Congress might or might
not take could affect our business, which, in
turn, impacts customers, shareholders, and
employees."
Throughout Ali's career, she has met numerous
other Kappa Deltas. While Ali didn't realize
it at the time, she was working with another
Epsilon Iota sister, Meghan Sanguinette
Schmidtlein '08, who had graduated a few
years after her.
"She has since become a great friend and it's
been fun exchanging stories with her as women
involved in politics, which is a lonely place
to be sometimes. I feel like she's my biggest
cheerleader, and I know I'm hers!"
Ali also credits her time as a ΚΔ to opening
her up to unexpected paths.
"I always thought I'd go to law school but
ended up getting my MBA after working at a
Fortune 500 company and realizing I loved the
fast-pace nature of the business environment.
That was an unexpected but fun change for
someone who never showed any passion
for business besides a short stint as sorority
treasurer and a failed attempt at setting up a
magazine store as a kid!"
Ali and her husband, Jesse, met in Washington,
D.C., and are both political enthusiasts who hail
from Missouri. They are proud parents of their
2-year-old son, Bennett. A few of Ali's hobbies
include golfing, reading biographies, and
serving on a board for the St. Louis Symphony.
Ali recently moved to St. Louis after living
for eight years in Washington, D.C. She is
excited about the opportunity to reconnect with
Epsilon Iota and her sisters.
"I formed some of my closest friends from
ΚΔ," Ali shared. "They were in my wedding,
and I was in theirs."
