About Me

Passionate educator with hands-on experience in public schools, non-profit management, and for profit education.

What are my major accomplishments? Leading social studies department at a DC charter school, teaching conversational English to young women in New Delhi, and rejuvenating a private tutoring business in DC area.

I understand from all perspectives--personal, political, and economic--the importance of education and aspire to expand access to education for women and girls in developing nations.

In my next professional iteration, I aspire to harness my expertise and passion to connect private companies with opportunities in the public sector to educate women and girls.
