I graduated from Dartmouth in 2015. Following graduation, I attended Officer Candidate School for the U.S. Navy and became a Surface Warfare Officer. I spent five years on active duty serving onboard the USS JOHN FINN (DDG 113) and USS MOBILE BAY (CG 53). My time on active duty was a fantastic experience, I was lucky enough to sail in the Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Pacific Oceans as well as sail through the Strait of Gibraltar and the Panama Canal.

Matthew Samuel Mirliani graduated from Dartmouth College in 2016 with a major in Government and a minor in History. His senior seminars for his Government major were focused on U.S. foreign policy. For his Culminating Experience, he wrote on the U.S. embassy in Tehran during the 1979 Iranian revolution; the paper analyzed excerpts from declassified embassy archives, contextualizing them within an existing conversation on the U.S.'s inability to understand the nuances of Iranian politics and society.
