I work with K-12 and undergraduate students across a variety of roles, institutions, and industries, including as a full-time Education Fellow at Dumbarton Oaks in D.C.; as a volunteer ski instructor at YES, a non-profit in Boston; and as a summer teaching assistant at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
I hold an A.B. cum laude from Harvard College. I interned for a federal judge and for a U.S. senator as a college student, and was shortlisted to deliver Harvard’s 2024 undergraduate commencement address.
As a scholar of intellectual history and Indigenous history during college, I traveled 20,000+ miles to/from Oceania while writing my undergraduate thesis on the Pacific Islands region for the Harvard History Department. (Final grade: magna cum laude)
As a 2025 LEDA Legal Scholar, I will apply to law school this upcoming fall.
