I began my decade-long relationship with India while studying in Madurai during college. After graduating from Grinnell College, I returned to Madurai and worked as a program assistant for the SITA Program and volunteered for SEED, an after school education program for disadvantaged students. I've co-led high school exchange trips to Saudi Arabia and South India and have taught English in Japan on the JET Programme for three years. My MA TEFL/TESL graduate thesis brought together my dedication to education and social issues in India through a comparative analysis of private and government published English textbooks. Last year I received a grant from Grinnell College to extend my AIF Clinton Service in India fellowship as well as to initiate the Ready to Read project with Aid India in Chennai.
