The Institute of World Politics is pleased to announce that Jacqueline T. Wieland (Jackie), has joined the Board of Trustees.

Longtime IWP trustee Amb. Aldona Wos commented: “Jackie has over 35 years of experience in the finance sector balanced with extensive nonprofit and foundation work. Her father, a career Army Colonel who subsequently worked with a consulting firm working directly with the State Department ensuring we had appropriate technology and security for our Embassies, instilled in Jackie a love for our country. Personally, I have witnessed Jackie’s patriotic core values on display in her daily life in our community. I am delighted that Jackie Wieland has agreed to join the Board of Trustees of IWP.”

A graduate of Virginia Tech University, Ms. Wieland has served as a financial advisor for almost four decades. She currently serves as First Vice President and Accredited Investment Fiduciary® (AIF®) for Stifel.
