B.E.S.T. Young Alumni Lunch
January 8, 2026
B.E.S.T. staff welcomed the start of 2026 by gathering in community with our college-aged Alumni for a networking lunch at Mt. Washington Tavern. Joined by B.E.S.T. Board President Karlo Young, the afternoon offered a warm space for young Alumni to meet each other, reconnect with friends, and strengthen professional connections while also sharing their “highs and lows” of the past year.
Conversation focused on internships and career growth, with staff sharing how the B.E.S.T. Alumni network can provide ongoing guidance and support. Karlo also reflected on how LinkedIn can help build ones professional network; and he encouraged Alumni to stay open and flexible as they explore career paths that may not feel direct but often lead to valuable skills, experience, and growth.
We are grateful for the time shared together and look forward to staying connected as we continue to strengthen the B.E.S.T. Alumni community network.
