In this episode, Maura Sweeney speaks with Cymetra Williams '03. The conversation follows Cymetra's winding path from the Pacific Northwest, to Worcester, Japan, NYC, New Jersey, and finally, landing in Oklahoma, where, at the time of the podcast recording, she worked as the Assistant U.S. Attorney for the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Oklahoma. Cymetra recently relocated to Washington, D.C., and now works as legal counsel for Booz Allen Hamilton. While her path has not been straight, the mission and purpose that drive her work have been unwavering.  As a student at Holy Cross, Cymetra found support and inspiration from many different areas, with a particular appreciation for the programs run by the Chaplain's Office.  Today, she continues to live a life of service as she fights for the rights of the victims she represents.  Thanks to her dedication to advocacy, care for others and care for self, Cymetra is lighting the way for others to follow.   About the Lighting the Way Series: In September 1972, the first women enrolled at the College of the Holy Cross, lighting the way for generations to follow, women who would advance to create lives of personal and professional impact across all vocations across the globe, inspired by the foundation of a Jesuit, Catholic liberal arts education.

Through their service, professional and personal pursuits, these women are living the Holy Cross mission and leaving a lasting impact on the lives of others.
