Biography

I'm Clara, and I've lived in Louisiana since 2019. My career has focused on utilizing technology to build systems to support education reform and community development within the nonprofit sector, although I am looking to branch out and learn more about how other sectors can drive social impact. My background is heavily influenced by philosophy and history; I received my bachelor's degree in liberal arts from St. John's College in Santa Fe. I'm excited to ground my philosophizing in a technical skillset, so to speak. Prior to moving to New Mexico for school, I grew up in rural Arkansas. My dream is to use data science to understand how kids truly learn and to break down barriers and drive education reform at a national scale.
