Описание: It was a “gigantic” role: one that required Gina Raimondo to engage in high-powered meetings with heads of state and be called on in the White House Situation Room to weigh in on critical decisions of national security. After serving as Secretary of Commerce during the Biden administration, Gina Raimondo is now taking time to consider what her next move will look like. But there’s one thing the former Governor of Rhode Island knows for sure: she wants to stay in public service.
