A Passion for International Relations Realized in the Heart of D.C.

But for young Payton Arbuthnot of Springfield, Colorado, it was a source of fascination - one that would eventually inspire her to pursue an internship with the State Department's Bureau of Overseas Buildings and Operations.

"I would come home from school every day, and my mom would be listening to the news. I was fascinated," said Arbuthnot. "I thought it was the coolest thing to go to school and know what was happening in the world. That was the beginning of a passion."
