QND Is The Place To Be
It was through Quincy Notre Dame’s instruction, and rigorous curriculum that I was able to create a professional foundation for executive leadership.  QND prepared me for over two decades in Washington, DC, especially my time on Capitol Hill in the U.S. Senate by laying the groundwork for the demands of my future.
