Karen Hudes, J.D.

I am an economist and lawyer practicing in Bethesda, Maryland, a suburb of Washington DC. My website is at www.kahudes.net. In a nutshell, I studied economics at the University of Amsterdam, went to law school at Yale, then went into private practice in securities law, worked for 8 years at the Export Import Bank of the US, and for 21 years in the legal department of the World Bank. Currently I am active on governance issues. I have a husband, two kids, and two siamese cats. I am new to Wikipedia, and looking forward to becoming an active member of this community.
