Background

About Ethan Russell

International Trade Research Analyst at Ardent Eagle Solutions with a strong foundation in global policy, cross-cultural communication, and international affairs. I graduated from Virginia Tech with a B.A. in International Relations and a minor in Japanese Studies, where I developed a keen interest in trade dynamics, geopolitical strategy, and Asia-Pacific relations. My professional journey has been shaped by diverse roles from public policy and healthcare operations to retail and logistics. These experiences inform my research approach and help me analyze trade data with a real-world lens. I’m passionate about connecting global insights with actionable intelligence, and I thrive in roles that require both critical thinking and cross-sector collaboration.
