Assistant Editor

As an assistant editor at Edutopia, I write journalistic articles covering a range of topics. My passion lies in equity and bringing awareness and resources to groups that have less access.

I believe strongly in all forms of education. It's through education that we broaden our minds and open our hearts to ourselves and others.
