As the chief of staff to Connecticut Gov. Ned Lamont, Paul Mounds Jr. ’07 is helping to manage the state government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. “I always tell people, ‘I don’t work in politics; I work in public service,’” Mounds says.

Born in Hartford, Mounds grew up knowing that he wanted to serve his community. He chose to attend Trinity because of its strong political science program and its Legislative Internship Program, which gave him early experience working at the Capitol.
