AREAS OF EXPERTISE IN GRADUATE SCHOOL
At Harvard, I study education policy: how teachers, schools, school districts, and governments work together to improve upon education needs across the world. I also work with MIT’s leadership and management program on how to foster school leadership. I am interested in exploring how to empower teachers and cultivate school leadership in the Boston area and schools across the globe, how to create a sense of global citizenship, and how to increase pathways for all students to access higher education.
