Experience: Education is one of the most powerful forces for possibility in a person's life, and LearningWorks understands that it does not look the same for everyone. I joined the board because I believe every learner deserves a pathway that fits their life. My work at the University of Southern Maine has shown me what becomes possible when institutions meet people where they are and invest in their potential. LearningWorks is doing that work every day in our community, and I want to help make sure more people have access to it.
