My research and interests include feminist approaches to reproductive health and rights, social justice for immigrants and marginalized populations and progressive education for all. My professional trajectory has followed several paths; I’ve had careers in nonprofit and grants management, event planning, providing programmatic and administrative support in education, human rights, community organizing and philanthropy. Through varied experience I have developed keen skills in planning, oversight and perspective shifting, understanding the threads that tie seemingly disparate pieces together into a coherent whole.
I have worked with the International Rescue Committee as an Afterschool Tutor, promoting English language literacy and academic achievement among Brooklyn International High School students. In 2010, I co-founded Social Media for Kids®, an educational start-up with the mission of raising awareness about the potential benefits and harms of internet-based Social Media. I researched immigration in Buenos Aires, Argentina, worked with with the UNDP’s Equator Initiative, and provided research and event planning support to the Africa Grantmakers’ Affinity Group. I served as Program Officer for Grantmaking in West Africa for a major international foundation, managing a portfolio of grants in support of non-governmental and community-based organizations engaged in grassroots human rights work in Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal, Liberia and The Gambia.
I have a BA in Liberal Arts from Bennington College (Bennington, VT) and a MA in International Affairs from New School University (New York, NY). I have a Certificate in Design, Monitoring and Evaluation for Peacebuilding and Conflict Sensitive Development from the School of International Service, American University (Washington, DC) and have completed coursework on the Theory and Practice of Advising through NACADA The Global Community for Academic Advising.
