About Bryn Norrie

As incoming Young BPW for the 2024-2026 Executive Committee term, I have been a member of BPW since 2021, when I joined as an Executive Committee intern while in college. BPW has been an integral part of my college and young professional life. BPW equipped me with skills I use every day to navigate through the world and learn how to be a professional.  

The amazing network of women in BPW have continued to be there for me through every stage of my life in the last 3 years. I know that I can always lean on my BPW sisters for advice and cheerleading when I need it. I hope to be able to share this wonderful community with more young women and grow BPW’s reach.

I have plans to continue outreach to student groups and ensure the depth of knowledge and experience we have in this organization is saved and communicated to a new generation of young women professionals and leaders.  

I currently live in Arlington, VA and work for an international development NGO called 

Counterpart International. I work on pro-democracy, media freedom, and women’s empowerment projects mainly funded by USAID.  I have gotten the chance to travel around the world with this job and appreciate the importance of connections, friendship, and support (something always provided to me by BPW).  

I graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder in 2023 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science and a Certificate in Peace and Conflict Studies. In my free time I like to hike, bake, and spend time with my friends and family.  

I am looking forward to serving as the YBPW on the Executive Committee for the next two years.  

I’d love to connect on LinkedIn
